Abstract: randomizr is a Stata translation of the R package randomizr. It simplifies the design and analysis of randomized experiments. It covers most experimental designs ranging from block random assignment to cluster random assignment. The package consists of six commands. simple_ra implements a random assignment procedure in which units are independently assigned to treatment conditions. complete_ra implements a random assignment procedure in which fixed numbers of units are assigned to treatment conditions. block_ra implements a random assignment procedure in which units that are grouped into blocks defined by pre-treatment covariates are assigned using complete random assignment within block. cluster_ra implements a random assignment procedure in which groups of units are assigned together (as a cluster) to treatment conditions; this function conducts complete random assignment at the cluster level. And finally, block_andFile-URL: http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/_/cluster_ra is a random assignment procedure in which units are assigned as clusters and clusters are nested within blocks.
