I am running a two-way anova with Type III sums of squares and would like to be able to understand what the different SS mean when I use different contrasts, e.g. treatment contrasts vs helmert contrasts. I have read John Fox's "An R and S-Plus Companion to Applied Regression" approach -p. 140- suggesting that treatment contrasts do not usually result in meaningful results with Type III SS but it's not clear to me why. Any suggestions on a stats text discussing this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mel
