Abstract: A simple method is provided to construct a general class of individual and simultaneous confidence intervals for the effects in orthogonal saturated designs. These intervals use the data adaptively, maintain the confidence levels sharply at at the least favorable parameter configuration, work effectively under effect sparsity, and include the intervals by Wang and Voss (2001) as a special case.
Key words and phrases: Effect sparsity, factorial design, minimum function, symmetric unimodal distribution.
