An instructor is going to model an experiment in his statistics class by comparing the effect of 4 different treatments on student responses. There are 40 students in the class. Which is the best way for the instructor to distribute the students to the 4 treatments for this experiment? Assign the first treatment to the first 10 students on the class list, the second treatment to the next 10 students, and so on. All of these are equally appropriate methods. Assign a unique number to each student, then use random numbers to assign 10 students to the first treatment, 10 students to the second treatment, and so on.
