Appraising a Trial: Equal Treatment

Captions available

The idea

Appraisal asks whether the groups were treated equally apart from the intervention, and who knew which group a participant was in.

In practice

Two groups receiving identical care except for the thing being tested.

Where people slip

Extra attention given to one group is an intervention nobody intended to test.
