Randomization description
We will construct 6 blocks in AABB, BBAA, ABAB, BABA, ABBA, and BAAB using four blocks. We will assign 1 to 6 for each block. Then, using the random number table, based on the sample size, 15 units of 4 blocks will be selected so that we consider having 30 people in the group (A) and 30 people in the group (B). Therefore, we will do block randomization.
