Thanks for your reply. As to g2 and g3: g2: a + d + c + a:d + a:c + d:c g3: a + d + c + a:d + a:c + d:c + a:d:c The only difference between g2 and g3 is "a:d:c",which refers to "case depends on drug but in the same way for different levels of age". And anova tests whether this "only difference"is significant.
But as to g1 and g3: g1: a + d + c + a:d + a:c g3: a + d + c + a:d + a:c + d:c + a:d:c The only difference between g1 and g3 is "d:c + a:d:c". What's "d:c + a:d:c" refers to? Thanks.
