Theoretically, honesty can also arise, when high-quality individuals achieve greater benefit from an allocation to a trait than do low-quality individuals even when the costs of the trait are equivalent [51].
Another challenge of demonstrating the impact of the intervention is that an allocation to a control group may have tempted the nurses in the control practices to join another training course.
And an allocation to gold in a portfolio, for most investors, is a very prudent thing.

Should I invest in commodities? A. Investors could consider an allocation to gold of about 2 percent to 5 percent in a moderate risk portfolio.
Following our previous logic, this should theoretically lead to a market correction and an increase in capital allocation to Series A rounds.
Treatment order was dictated by random allocation to a Latin square, with a 7-day wash-out period between treatments.
In all reward paradigms except pseudo-random, earned reward depended on two variables: (1) the subject's choice (A or B; corresponding to red and blue reward curves in Figure 1C, D, respectively), and (2) the percent of the last 20 choices made to choice A (%A, allocation to A; x-axis on plots in Figure. 1B, C, D).
Assuming that subjects choose A at the crossing point, the percent allocation to A (%A) will increase, resulting in decreased subsequent earned reward for selecting A (Figure 1B).
They began performing near the crossing point, showing a temporary excursion to greater allocation to A (%A), and then reverted again to performing near the crossing point (Figure 2A).
Since we did not want to entirely eliminate the allocation to a program, we introduced a lower bound on the allocation to each program set at 25% of the current funding level.
