Rezumat	A single-blind full factorial experiment systematically tests every combination of all factor levels while keeping participants unaware of their treatment assignment. This design allows simultaneous estimation of all main effects and all interaction effects between factors, with single-blind masking reducing participant-side biases such as demand characteristics and expectation effects — without requiring investigator blinding.	A blocked full factorial experiment tests every combination of all factor levels while grouping experimental runs into homogeneous blocks to isolate a known nuisance variable. This design preserves the power to detect all main effects and interactions of the factors of interest while preventing batch-to-batch, day-to-day, or machine-to-machine variability from inflating experimental error.
