Captions available
The idea
Random assignment controls the biases that arise from how groups are formed. It does nothing about measurement, attrition or reporting.
In practice
A properly randomized trial with a biased outcome measure.
Where people slip
Randomisation is checked first and is not checked last. The other stages still have to be examined.
