Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are a type of scientific experiment that aim to reduce bias when testing the effectiveness of new interventions or policies. By randomly assigning participants to either a treatment group or a control group, researchers can make more accurate comparisons and determine the true impact of the intervention on the outcomes of interest, making RCTs a gold standard in evaluating policy effectiveness and impact.
