| Sintesi≠ | A Pilot A/B test is a small-scale, preliminary split-test experiment run before a full A/B test to assess feasibility, estimate effect sizes, detect operational problems, and validate measurement instruments. Participants are randomly assigned to a control condition (A) and a treatment condition (B), but the study is explicitly underpowered — its purpose is to inform the design of the definitive test, not to yield a conclusive comparison. | A pilot randomized controlled trial (pilot RCT) is a small-scale, fully randomized experiment conducted before a definitive RCT to test the feasibility of study procedures, estimate key parameters such as recruitment rates and effect-size variability, and identify practical barriers. It uses the same randomization, intervention, and measurement protocol as the planned full trial but on a fraction of the target sample. The goal is not to confirm efficacy but to refine and justify the main trial design. |
