    Hello.

    Do factors need to be Independent of each other in an experimental design? Let's say Independent factors in my experiment are X,Y,Z

    So if I'm designing an experiment, Is it appropriate to take these 3 factors if it is known that a change in X results in change in Y or Z?

    Looking forward to your answer..

    Thank you.
