Answer :
Least Significant Difference (LSD) is the measure that does not evaluate the comparative effectiveness of an IPDS, as it is mainly used in agronomic research, which is unrelated to Integrated Product Development Systems.
The question pertains to the measurement of the comparative effectiveness of an Integrated Product Development System (IPDS), which can involve various evaluation methods. While the provided references discuss different assessment and analysis models, including ipsative assessment, which measures personal development by comparing current to previous performance; a system-based competitive assessment that categorizes learners; the Least Significant Difference (LSD) for comparing means in agronomic research; the equivalence of certain analyses; potential measures for predicting treatment outcomes; and Analytic Hierarchy Process' (AHP) pairwise comparisons, none of these directly answer which measure does not evaluate IPDS effectiveness. However, since we are asked to identify a measure that does not assess the comparative effectiveness of an IPDS specifically, and given that agronomic research is distinctly different from product development systems, we can infer that LSD is the measure that does not apply to IPDS comparison.
