"Adequate allocation concealment should prevent study participants and study personnel from determining treatment allocation before a study begins" <-- It should be pointed out that allocations aren't necessarily generated before a study begins. They are commonly generated when a participant is recruited, which can be during the trial/experiment. EnsiremT ( talk) 21:42, 22 May 2019 (UTC)
I would like to have a section on methods of allocation concealment. It could talk about the frequency of each (if such data is available) as well as pros and cons. -- Wikiman2718 ( talk) 00:06, 23 May 2019 (UTC)
Randomized controlled experiments are also used in a variety of fields (economics, farming, education, psychology, etc.). The current focus of the article is medical clinical trials... should it be broadened instead? For instance central allocation is a rare thing in educational trials and few research (to my knowledge) has focused on the effects of poor allocation concealment in education.
