In a 2×2 design, we let subjects either vote on or exogenously encounter incentive settings while assigned unequal endowments are either task-determined or random.
The experience of decentralization has shown that benefits often accrue to elites in settings with highly unequal power structures; therefore, moves toward localization must be accompanied by careful measures to ensure that resources are distributed equitably [ 70].
Moreover, the effect of unequal power between researchers from resource-rich settings and host sponsors at resource-poor sites may influence local research ethics committees to approve studies and provide regulatory oversight.
In many resource-limited settings, low education rates paralleled by unequal power dynamics between health providers and patients make accountability challenging.
Second, only CRTs with balanced design were considered; however, settings found more often in empirical situations, such as unequal numbers of subjects per cluster, or unequal number of clusters in each trial arm, were not considered in this study.
We compared mean convergence times between each pair of parameter settings using two-sample t tests assuming unequal variances.
We investigated the household-level social network correlates of acceptance of intimate partner violence (IPV) in rural, agrarian settings of Honduras and Uganda, two low-income countries with unequal access to resources based upon gender.
The 12 cadaver specimens were initially intended to form 3 equal groups, but the challenges faced with MRI settings required the use of an additional specimen, which resulted in unequal group sizes.
These data however masks the unequal distribution found between the private and public sectors and between urban and rural settings [ 8].
A review of how the budgeting process was undertaken showed an unequal distribution of power between the various actors involved in the planning and priority-setting process.
