Performs treatment assignment for (field) experiments considering available, possibly multivariate and continuous, information (covariates, observable characteristics), that is: forms balanced treatment groups, according to the minMSE-method as proposed by Schneider and Schlather (2017) doi:10419/161931.
We provide R and Stata implementation for treatment assignment using the minMSE method as proposed by Schneider and Schlather (2017).
R implementation: Get our R package ‘minMSE’ via CRAN. You can also install the package directly in R:
install.packages("minMSE")
library(minMSE)

Looking for the Stata implementation? See Stata Implementation of the minMSE treatment assignment method for one or multiple treatment groups.
