Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are the gold standard for research, aiming to eliminate bias by randomly assigning participants to treatment groups.

“the reason that human randomized control trials are important is if you're designing an experiment and you randomize what you are doing by randomly assigning people to groups you're washing out that bias because you can assume that whatever in inent characteristics that might be coupled to whatever you're going to try are going to be randomly distributed and evenly distributed across the groups therefore we say human randomized control trials are kind of what's needed to establish causation”

“of course the gold standard that we always talk about is a randomized control trial where whatever question you want to study you study it but you attempt to take all bias out of it by randomly assigning people into the treatment groups”
