Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are experimental studies where participants are randomly assigned to either a treatment group or a control group to evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention. This design helps eliminate bias, providing more reliable data on the intervention's impact by ensuring that the groups are comparable in all aspects except for the treatment being studied. RCTs are widely used in various fields, including healthcare and social sciences, to establish evidence-based practices.
