Approved For Release 2000/08/10 : CIA-RDP96-00787R000200010007-4 ‘ (a) Universal Randomization Protocol It was deemed desirable in our work to establish a universal randomi- zation protocol independent of the particular experiment under consideration. The only exceptions were to be automated experiments where target selection is determined by radioactive decay or electronic randomization. ‘The randomization procedure is designed around a ten-unit base, e.¢,, ten targets, ten work periods, ete. A ten-digit sequence governing an experiment is blind to both experimenter and subject, and is uncovered by means of the following procedure. A three-page RAND Table of Random Digits (Table 5) is entered to obtain the ten-digit sequence, the entrance point being determined by four throws of a die,? the first 1, 2, or 3 determining page, the next 1, 2, 3, or 4 determining column block, and the final throw determining from which of the first six rows in the block the ten-digit sequence is to be taken. An opaque card with a single-digit window is then moved across the row to uncover digits one at a time. If a multiplicity of targets exist, the digita 0 through 9 are employed directly. If a binary command is requived (e.g., increase/decrease or activity/no activity) the parity of the digit (even or odd) is employed. + A technique found in control runs to produce a distribution of die faces differing nonsignificantly from chance expectation. .
