- La differenza ha a che fare con i confronti a coppie di tipo dei modelli a cascata.
- Inoltre, la funzione aov () ha un problema con il modo in cui sceglie i gradi di libertà. Sembra mescolare due concetti: 1) la somma dei quadrati dai confronti graduali, 2) i gradi di libertà da un quadro generale.
