Last October, a robot car designed by a team of Stanford engineers covered 132 miles of desert road without human intervention to capture a $2 million prize offered by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, part of the Pentagon.
For the intervention to capture these elements, we used cluster as the unit of randomization.
Potentially exacerbating this challenge for future studies, it remains possible that measures for DT should occur a week or more after the intervention to capture its impact.
However, many evidence-based, cost-effective interventions fail to capture the attention of decision-makers who ostensibly operate on diverging sets of cultures, interests, and imperatives [ 7].
When studies tested multiple interventions against a comparison condition, we split the comparison group sample size by the number of intervention groups to capture heterogeneity across maintenance intervention arms.
In order to record how implementation is carried out on the ground, the authors of one paper (on the topic of secondary prevention of heart disease in general practice) suggest using a range of treatment fidelity procedures to monitor the intervention and to capture the processes involved.
His pragmatic mix of markets and intervention seems to capture the popular mood and thus to look fashionably modern.
The IOI was designed to serve as a near-term measure for the effectiveness of ASSIST interventions in order to capture societal changes that are fostered by early intervention strategies that will ultimately, over time, result in the final desired outcomes such as lower smoking prevalence and per capita cigarette consumption.
Innovative designs, such as the step wedge cluster randomised sampling for the insurance intervention trial were implemented to capture intervention effects (40).
The ability of the causal model framework to model the consequences of interventions allows it to capture crucial components of causal reasoning and (as we shall see) is critical for the evaluation of counterfactual claims.
