Resum	A crossover natural experiment exploits an externally imposed condition — a policy change, law, or environmental event — that exposes the same units (individuals, regions, firms) to both treatment and control states at different times. By observing each unit in multiple conditions, researchers use within-unit variation to estimate causal effects without researcher-controlled randomization, combining the internal validity advantage of crossover designs with the real-world relevance of natural experiments.	A crossover field experiment is a within-subject experimental design conducted outside the laboratory in naturalistic, real-world settings. Each participant or unit receives multiple treatments in a randomized sequence, separated by washout periods, allowing researchers to observe causal effects while each unit serves as its own control. This approach combines the internal validity of crossover designs with the ecological validity characteristic of field experimentation.
