Repetition refers to performing multiple trials throughout an experiment. Repetition reduces mistakes and increases one’s confidence in the results. Replication refers to the ability of a process to be repeated by another individual. When one scientist replicates the experiment of another, the experiment should produce the same results.
<span>Repeat and replicate measurements are both multiple response measurements taken at the same combination of factor settings; but repeat measurements are taken during the same experimental run or consecutive runs, while replicate measurements are taken during identical but different experimental runs, which are often randomized. </span>
