dc.abstract.enIn this paper, we present a statistical approach to evaluate the relationship between variables observed in a two-factors experiment. We consider a three-level model with covariance structure Σ ⊗ ψ1 ⊗ ψ2, where Σ is an arbitrary positive definite covariance matrix, and ψ1 and ψ2 are both correlation matrices with a compound symmetric structure corresponding to two different factors. The Rao’s score test is used to test the hypotheses that observations grouped by one or two factors are uncorrelated. We analyze a fermentation process to illustrate the results.
