    This document describes screening designs, which are used to identify important factors when there are a large number of factors to test. It discusses regular fractional replication designs with 4, 8, 16, or 32 runs and Plackett-Burman designs with 12, 20, 24, or 28 runs. An example demonstrates generating a six-factor screening design with 16 runs in standard order and storing the results on a spreadsheet.

    Chapter 886

    Screening
    Designs
    Introduction
    Screening designs are used to find the important factors from a large number (up to 31) of two-
    level factors. When the number of runs is 4, 8, 16, or 32 (powers of 2), the design is a regular
    fractional replication. When the number of runs is 12, 20, 24, or 28, the design used is a Plackett-
    Burman design.
    This program uses the screening designs given in Lawson (1987). These designs make it possible
    to evaluate each main effect, although these are aliased with several interactions.
    An introduction to experimental design is presented in Chapter 881 on Two-Level Factorial
    Designs and will not be repeated here.

    Procedure Options
    This section describes the options available in this procedure.

    Design Tab
    This panel specifies the parameters that will be used to create the design values.

    Experimental Setup
    Runs
    The desired size (number of rows) of the experiment. This number must be 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24,
    28, or 32. This number determines which design is generated.

    • Random
    The rows are randomly ordered (random blocks and random rows within blocks). Use this
    option when the order of application to experimental units is governed by the row number.

    • Standard
    The rows are not randomly ordered. Instead, they are placed in standard order. Use this
    option when you want to quickly see the structure of the design.
    886-2 Screening Designs

    Sort Order
    The order of the generated rows. The rows may be in random or standard order.

    Experimental Setup – Factor Values


    Factor Values
    Each factor has two possible values (levels), which are specified here. These are the values that
    will be written to the database. The first value is used to represent the low value. The second
    value represents the high value. You may use both text and numeric values, although we
    recommend that you stick with numeric values since these may be used in the regression
    program.
    Enter a pair of values separated by a blank or comma, such as ‘-1 1’ or ‘0 1.’

    Data Storage to Spreadsheet


    Store Data on Spreadsheet
    Check this box to generate the design data on the spreadsheet. The spreadsheet data will be
    identical to the design data generated on the output window.
    First Factor Column
    This is where the group of columns that is to contain your design begins. The K-1 columns after
    this column are also filled with data. The number of variables used is determined by the number
    of Factor Values boxes that contain data.
    Warning: The program fills these columns with data, so any previous data will be lost.

    Example 1 – Screening Design


    This section presents an example of how to generate an experimental design using this program.
    CAUTION: since the purpose of this routine is to generate data, you should always begin
    with an empty output spreadsheet.
    In this example, we will show you how to generate a six-factor design using 16 runs.

    Setup
    This section presents the values of each of the parameters needed to run this example. First, from
    the PASS Home window, load the Screening Designs procedure window by expanding Design
    of Experiments, then clicking on Experimental Design, and then clicking on Screening
    Designs. You may then make the appropriate entries as listed below, or open Example 1 by
    going to the File menu and choosing Open Example Template.

    1 Specify the design parameters.


    • On the Screening Designs window, select the Design tab.
    • Set the number of Runs to 16.
    • Select Standard in the Sort Order list box.
    • Set six of the Factor Values boxes equal to -1 1.
    • Check the Store Data on Spreadsheet box.
    • Enter 1 in the First Factor Column box.

    2 Run the procedure.


    • From the Run menu, select Run Procedure. Alternatively, just click the Run button.

    3 -1 1 -1 -1 1 1
    4 1 1 -1 -1 -1 -1
    5 -1 -1 1 -1 1 -1
    6 1 -1 1 -1 -1 1
    7 -1 1 1 -1 -1 1
    8 1 1 1 -1 1 -1
    9 -1 -1 -1 1 -1 1
    10 1 -1 -1 1 1 -1
    11 -1 1 -1 1 1 -1
    12 1 1 -1 1 -1 1
    13 -1 -1 1 1 1 1
    14 1 -1 1 1 -1 -1
    15 -1 1 1 1 -1 -1
    16 1 1 1 1 1 1

    The values were also produced on the spreadsheet.

    These values are also generated on the spreadsheet. Usually, you would specify the number of
    runs as close to the number of variables as possible, while still leaving some degrees of freedom
    for an estimate of error.
