תקציר	A crossover laboratory experiment is a within-subjects experimental design conducted in a controlled lab environment in which each participant receives two or more treatments sequentially, serving as their own control. By eliminating between-person variability from the error term, it yields high statistical power with relatively small samples. Treatment order is randomized or counterbalanced across participants to guard against order and carryover effects.	A crossover randomized controlled trial (crossover RCT) is an experimental design in which each participant receives all study interventions in a randomized sequence, separated by a washout period. Because every participant serves as their own control, within-subject variability is eliminated from the treatment comparison, yielding greater statistical power per participant than a parallel-group RCT of equal size.
