What the Experimental design skill does

It helps the assistant choose a study design, decide on randomization and blocking, and lay out treatment combinations so results can be interpreted. The guidance starts from the research question and the structure of the units being studied rather than a preferred design. It also covers common mistakes that weaken studies and recommends recording the design, software versions, seed, and schedule.

What it covers

  • Workflow for documenting design, seed, and schedule before data collection
