Abstract

We consider a two-factor experiment in which the factors have the same levels with a natural ordering among the levels. Likelihood ratio tests for testing equality of the main effects with a one-sided alternative and for testing the one-sided hypothesis as a null hypothesis are studied. Closed form expressions for the maximum likelihood estimates under the various hypotheses are obtained. The null hypothesis distributions for these test statistics are derived.
