DEF

An extension of the analysis of variance. In the latter the analysis is concerned with sources of variability affecting a set of observations of a single variable y. It may be that there exist variables x (say one for simplicity) which are correlated with y but unaffected by sources of variability; and we wish to abstract the effect of x from y before analyzing the latter.

DEF

Extension de l'analyse de la variance, au cas où l'on veut tenir compte de facteurs de variation qui n'ont pu être compris dans le plan d'expérience; elle utilise conjointement l'analyse de la variance et la théorie de la régression; les facteurs dont elle permet de tenir compte sont, soit connus, mais trop dispersés pour être pris individuellement en considération, soit inconnus, mais pouvant être mesurés a posteriori.
