Logically consistent hypothesis-testing for factorial analysis of variance designs is proposed in the context of a hierarchical model. It is shown that all of the hypotheses associated with the traditional factorial model are conceptually independent and occupy the lowest levels of the hierarchy. (Author/JKS)

The use of Bayesian and empirical Bayesian techniques to summarize results from parallel randomized experiments is illustrated using the results of eight such experiments from an SAT coaching study. Graphical techniques, simulation techniques, and methods for monitoring the adequacy of model specification are highlighted. (Author/JKS)
