Abstract:
|
We propose a hybrid two-stage design for selecting the t best of k (k > t > 1) experimental Bernoulli treatments and a controlled Bernoulli treatment. The design uses a curtailment for possible early decision which achieves the same significance level and power as those of non-curtailed design. We adopt the selection-and-testing design considered by Thall, Simon, and Ellenberg (1988), but with a different goal: selecting among k treatments the t (t < k) best treatments and to compare them to the control. The selection stage of the design selects the t best provided that they are significantly better than other treatments and the control. The testing stage tests whether the selected two are superior to the control.
