RCT in schools needs updated literature

[datarichard]

There are multiple sources of more recent literature on change score vs ANCOVA analysis worth reviewing in the RCT in schools post (i.e., more recent than 2017):

• Dukes et al 2025 Change scores and baseline adjustment in Int J Epidemiology
• Tennant et al 2022 Analyses of change scores do not estimate causal effects in observational data Int J Epidemiology
• Tennant et al 2023 Lords paradox explained

Stephen Senn may also be worth revisiting:

• Senn 2006 Change from baseline and analysis of covariance revisited. Stat Med
