A Simulation Study on the Performance of the Simple Difference and Covariance Adjusted Scores in Randomized Experimental Designs

A Monte Carlo simulation was conducted to examine the conditions under which the simple difference and residualized change scores were more or less powerful than each other, and if the two estimators produced a biased estimate of the average treatment effect. Five factors were manipulated in the des...
