Order preserving	Order Preserving	None	n/a	Numeric and symbolic
	None	Order preserving
Constant	Constant	Constant	$b_{\mathit{ij}}=\mu$	Numeric and symbolic
	None	Constant	$b_{\mathit{ij}}={\alpha }_i$
	Constant	None	$b_{\mathit{ij}}={\beta }_j$
Additive	Additive	Additive	$b_{\mathit{ij}}=\mu +{\alpha }_i+{\beta }_j$	Numeric
	Constant	Additive	$b_{\mathit{ij}}=\mu +{\beta }_j$
