randomized field experiments

Randomized field experiments are research studies where participants or subjects, such as people, companies, or communities, are randomly assigned to different groups to test the effects of a specific intervention or treatment. This random assignment helps ensure that any differences in outcomes between groups are due to the intervention itself, not other factors. These experiments are conducted in real-world settings rather than in labs, providing more practical insights. They are commonly used to evaluate policies, programs, or products, offering reliable evidence about what works and what doesn't.
