Latin Square Design/Evidence
Method evidence record

Latin Square Design

The Latin square design is a blocked experimental design that simultaneously controls two independent nuisance factors — the row block and the column block — so that each treatment appears exactly once in every row and every column of an n×n arrangement. Formalised by Ronald A. Fisher in his 1935 monograph The Design of Experiments, the design dramatically reduces experimental error by absorbing variation from two extraneous sources before the treatment effects are estimated.
