  1. double blind

    A double-blind is a scientific experiment design in which neither the participants nor the researchers are aware of who belongs to the control group and who belongs to the experimental group. This procedure is used to prevent bias and ensure the results obtained are solely due to the variable being tested. The third party, which is not involved in the experiment, typically handles the administration of the experiment and the gathering of results to maintain this lack of knowledge. This method is commonly used in clinical trials, psychology, and social science.
