When do randomised trial results generalise to the populations that receive the treatment?
Needs experts
Background
Randomisation establishes internal validity within a trial population. Extending the result to a different population requires assumptions that are rarely stated and almost never tested. This asks which characteristics of a trial predict whether its effect estimate survives in routine practice.
Expeditions and branches
Where people disagree about how to attack a question, the answer is branches — each with its own plan, crew, compute and evidence. Branches are never merged by vote.
