Abstract

A statistical technique useful in the analysis of experiments involving time-response curves is presented. This procedure, known as growth curves analysis, uses the techniques of multivariate linear models to estimate parameters and test hypotheses. Examples of experimental designs to which this procedure can be applied and a worked out example are presented.
