สรุป	The split-plot design is a parametric experimental design that applies one factor to large whole plots and a second factor to subdivisions (sub-plots) within each whole plot. It was introduced by Frank Yates in 1935 to handle agricultural experiments where one factor — such as irrigation or tillage method — is difficult or impractical to change frequently, while a second factor can be varied more easily within the same plot.	Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM), also known as Multilevel Modeling (MLM), is a parametric statistical method for analyzing nested or clustered data — for example students within classrooms, patients within hospitals, or employees within organizations. Formalized by Raudenbush and Bryk in their 2002 seminal text (building on work from the mid-1980s), HLM simultaneously estimates individual-level and group-level effects while correctly partitioning variance across levels.
