We have been hired by Walmart to design an intervention to reduce turnover by eliminating or reducing burnout from their workers. We have one group that goes through the burnout intervention and another group get together and do puzzles. Why do we have a comparison group?

We want to determine if having flexible assignment due dates reduces stress in college classes. In our History of 2020s class, the material is the same, but the due date and late policy differ across two sections of the class. In the intervention group, this class section has flexible assignment due dates and a lighter late policy. In contrast, the control group class section has set due dates and stricter late policy. To ensure utilization, we keep providing updates to the funders and administrative team throughout the intervention. What is this known as?

We have decided to restructure the current work week as we think it leads to unhealthy levels of  stress, burnout, and overload for adults. We have given the option to either have individuals continue with the current model of working 5 days (2 at home, 3 in office) or the option of  4 10-hour days (completely in the office). We make decisions on the goods and services as costs and benefits and take on the perspectives of many involved with our intervention. What is this known as?

We have given the option to either have individuals continue with the current model of working 5 days (2 at home, 3 in office) or the option of  4 10-hour days (completely in the office). If I flip a coin to randomly assign groups, what is the problem with this method?

We have decided to restructure the current work week as we think it leads to unhealthy levels of  stress, burnout, and overload for adults. We have given the option to either have individuals continue with the current model of working 5 days (2 at home, 3 in office) or the option of  4 10-hour days (completely in the office). We say we have NO statistical significance difference in stress between the control and intervention groups, but there is an actual effect or difference. What error have we made?

We want to determine if humans actually can learn while multitasking. I have you (the entire class) study for an exam while also watching a new movie and being constantly interrupted by social media. In contrast, the control group will simply have classical music playing in the background. We mention that if we are able to multitask,  this will result in 25 dollars extra a week from working more. However, it will result in decrease in overtime of 20 dollars a week due to time spent studying. What measure of economic efficiency are we using?

We have given the option to either have individuals continue with the current model of working 5 days (2 at home, 3 in office) or the option of  4 10-hour days (completely in the office). Which of the following are ways we can randomly assign groups?

We have decided to restructure the current work week as we think it leads to unhealthy levels of  stress, burnout, and overload for adults. We have given the option to either have individuals continue with the current model of working 5 days (2 at home, 3 in office) or the option of  4 10-hour days (completely in the office). Our sample size of 20 is too small for there to be statistically significant results, but we see a decrease from 10 to 9 on the burnout scale and satisfaction increase of 1%. What type of significance is this known as?

We have given the option to either have individuals continue with the current model of working 5 days (2 at home, 3 in office) or the option of  4 10-hour days (completely in the office). We are determining the efficacy of a program with costs and outcomes with the costs of achieving tangible outcomes. What is this known as?

What are some of the ethical considerations of random assignment?
