A Multi-Factor Model is a statistical model that has one dependent variable and one or more independent variables.

• Example(s)
  • Two-way ANOVA model.
  • …
• Counter-Example(s):
  • One-Way ANOVA model.

  • QUOTE: The analysis of variance (ANOVA) (Neter, Wasserman, and Kutner, 1990) is used to detect significant factors in a multi-factor model. In the multi-factor model, there is a response (dependent) variable and one or more factor (independent) variables. This is a common model in designed experiments where the experimenter sets the values for each of the factor variables and then measures the response variable.
