Block variation measures the variation among block sample means, which is attributable not to chance but to inherent differences among blocks of experimental units. It is calculated as the sum of the squared deviations between each block sample mean and the grand mean. However, it does not necessarily equal the sum of the squared deviations between each block sample mean and the grand mean.
