A survey is to be conducted to compare the superannuation contributions made by employees from three Victorian universities. Employees are to be randomly selected from each of the three universities and the dollar amounts of their contributions recorded. The ANOVA model most likely to fit this situation is the randomised block design.

Three tennis players, one a beginner, one experienced and one a professional, have been randomly selected from the membership of a large city tennis club. Using the same ball, each person hits four serves with each of five racquet models, with the five racquet models selected randomly. Each serve is clocked with a radar gun and the result recorded. Among ANOVA models, this setup is most like the single-factor analysis of variance: independent samples.
