What is the role of randomization in a designed experiment? If you were conducting a completely randomized design with four treatments and 100 experimental units, describe how you would randomly assign the experimental units to the treatments.
Step 1 of 5) What is the role of randomization in a designed experiment If you were conducting a completely randomized design with four treatments and 100 experimental units, describe how you would randomly assign the experimental units to the treatments. The key to obtaining a sample representative of a population is to let chance or randomness play a role in dictating which individuals are in the sample, rather than convenience. If convenience is used to obtain a sample, the results of the survey are meaningless.
