Summary

The efficiency of the Latin square design relative to the completely randomized and the randomized complete block designs is expressed in the form (A+BF) where F is a variance ratio (or the sum of two ratios). The constants A and B are evaluated, and lines showing relative efficiencies for given F values are drawn for the 5 × 5, 6 × 6, 7 × 7 and 8 × 8 Latin squares.
