Completely Randomized Design/Evidence
Method evidence record

Completely Randomized Design

The completely randomized design is the most fundamental experimental design, in which experimental units are assigned to treatments entirely at random with no restrictions. Analysed by one-way ANOVA, it was formalised by R. A. Fisher in the 1930s and remains the reference starting point for experimental research whenever the experimental material is homogeneous and nuisance variation is absent or negligible.
