Within each of the 18 factorial combinations of site of recruitment and recovery style, a random permuted blocks procedure was used to generate a list of As and Bs.
A variable-sized block randomization procedure was used to minimize potential selection bias.
A block randomisation procedure was used, with stratification based on site of recruitment and severity of psychological distress at screening.
A central stratified block randomisation procedure was used to balance prognostic factors between treatment arms and to minimise the predictability of treatment allocation in this open label study.
A block-enter procedure was used to monitor the progression of the chi-square test to examine whether each of the factors significantly added to the variance explained by the model.
As some accessions were only present in two blocks, residual maximum likelihood (REML) procedure was used to test significance of difference between accessions, with blocks and rows within block as random term.
A block design with a matching procedure was used to control for the covariant effects that degree of disability (IRF-CMGs), gender and age may have on the OAI, and ultimately on the rehabilitation outcomes.
In the numerical simulation, a two-step computational procedure was used to analyze welding distortion in the asymmetrical curved block.
This procedure was used on two occasions.
