In my opinion,the area of greatest opportunity is digital field experiments.

Jakobsson and Ratkiewicz(2006) field experiments without consent.
Digital field experiments can offer tight control and process data to understand possible mechanisms(like lab experiments) and more diverse participants making real decisions in a natural environment(like field experiments). .
Paluck and Green(2009) field experiments in developing country.
Second, whereas most analog lab and field experiments treat participants as indistinguishable widgets, digital field experiments often use background information about participants in the design and analysis stages of the research.
The dichotomy that I presented between lab and field experiments is a bit simplified.
First, whereas most analog lab and field experiments have hundreds of participants, digital field experiments can have millions of participants.
In order to illustrate these three concepts in action,I will describe a number of follow-up partially digital field experiments that built on the elegant design and exciting results in Schultz et al.(2007).
Lab experiments offer control, field experiments offer realism, and digital field experiments combine control and realism at scale.
In addition to this combination of good characteristics of earlier experiments, digital field experiments also offer three opportunities that were difficult in analog lab and field experiments. .
Third, whereas many analog lab and field experiments deliver treatments and measure outcomes in a relatively compressed amount of time, some digital field experiments involve treatments that can be delivered over time and the effects can also be measured over time.
In order to illustrate these three concepts in action,I will describe a number of follow-up partially digital field experiments that built on the elegant design and exciting results of Schultz and colleagues(2007).
One area of social science where field experiments quickly became prominent is international development.
In order to show the value of moving beyond simple experiments, let's consider one of my favorite analog field experiments, a study by P. Wesley Schultz and colleagues on the relationship between social norms and energy consumption(Schultz et al. 2007).
One area of social science where field experiments quickly became prominent is international development.
Paluck and Green(2009) field experiments in developing country.
Parigi, Santana, and Cook(2017) describes how online field experiments can combine some of the characteristics of lab and field experiments. .
Whereas lab experiments can take weeks to run and field experiments can take months to set-up,experiments with participants recruited from MTurk can be run in days.
Finally, the ethical challenges arising from field experiments have been explored in the context of political science(Humphreys 2015; Desposato 2016b) and development economics(Baele 2013).
Whereas lab experiments can take weeks to run and field experiments can take months to set-up,experiments with participants recruited from MTurk can be run in days.
Another example that shows the ability of researchers to conduct digital field experiments in existing systems is the research by Arnout van de Rijt and colleagues(2014) on the keys to success.
Other researchers have provided advice about running field experiments with partner organizations such as political parties, NGOs, and businesses(Loewen, Rubenson, and Wantchekon 2010; List 2011; Gueron 2002).
Just as there are pure lab experiments, pure field experiments, and a variety of hybrids in between, there are pure analog experiments, pure digital experiments, and a variety of hybrids.
Matching in massive datamight be better than a small number of field experiments when(1) heterogeneity in effects is important and(2) the important variables needed for matching have been measured. Table 2.4 provides some other examples of how matching can be used with big data sources.
The field experiment involved visiting about 300 households in San Marcos, California five times over an eight week period.
