Consists of an independent variable and a dependent
A hypothesis variable; these variables are described in relation to
each another.
In a(n) ___________ design the researcher controls
Experimental (manipulates) the independent variable and randomly
assigns subjects to different conditions.
A(n) __________design does not include mechanisms to
pre-experimental compensate for the absence of either randomization or
control group
In a(n) _______ design the investigator does not randomly
assign participants but does manipulate the
quasi-experimental
independent variable and controls to enhance the
internal validity.
In a(n) ___________ design the researcher collects data
without introducing any treatment.
5. This experimental design is sometimes called a
non-experimental
crossover design. In the repeated measure design one
group of subjects is exposed to more than one
condition in random order.
This experimental design is sometimes called a
crossover design. In the ________________design one group of
repeated measure
subjects is exposed to more than one condition in
random order.
, This is a type of quasi-experimental design that involves
a comparison group that was not developed on the
non-equivalent
basis of random assignment. It is called a _______________
control group design.
A(n) ________________ begins with the occurrence of the
dependent variable in the present and then links this
retrospective study
effect to some presumed cause which occurred in the
past.
