In [[statistics]], '''restricted randomization''' occurs in the [[design of experiments]] and in particular in the context of [[randomized experiment]]s and [[randomized controlled trial]]s. Restricted randomization allows intuitively poor allocations of treatments to experimental units to be avoided, while retaining the theoretical benefits of randomization.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Dodge|first1=Y.|title=The Oxford Dictionary of Statistical Terms|publisher=OUP|year=2006|isbn=978-0-19-920613-1|url-access=registration|url=https://archive.org/details/oxforddictionary0000unse}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|last1=Grundy|first1=P.M.|last2=Healy|first2=M.J.R.|authorlink2=Michael Healy (statistician)|title=Restricted randomization and quasi-Latin squares|journal=Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, Series B|volume=12|pages=286–291}}</ref> For example, in a [[clinical trial]] of a new proposed treatment of obesity compared to a control, an experimenter would want to avoid outcomes of the randomization in which the new treatment was allocated only to the heaviest patients.
The concept was introduced by [[Frank Yates]] (1948){{full citation needed|date=November 2012}} and [[William J. Youden]] (1972){{full citation needed|date=November 2012}} "as a way of avoiding bad spatial patterns of treatments in designed experiments."<ref name="ref1">
