Experimental

Question 1

often called true or randomized experimental research, uses the scientific method to establish the cause-effect relationship among a group of variables that make up a study.

Answer 1

Experimental research

Question 2

The true experiment is often thought of as a laboratory study, but this is not always the case; a laboratory setting has nothing to do with it.

Answer 2

Experimental research

Question 3

A true experiment is any study where an effort is made to identify and impose control over all other variables except one.

Answer 3

Experimental research

Question 4

An independent variable is manipulated to determine the effects on the dependent variables.

Answer 4

Experimental research

Question 5

Subjects are assigned randomly to experimental treatments rather than identified in naturally occurring groups.

Answer 5

Experimental research

Question 6

attempts to establish cause-effect relationships among the variables.

Answer 6

Quasi Experimental Research/ Causal
Comparative Research

Question 7

This type is very similar to true experiments, but with some key differences.

Answer 7

Quasi Experimental Research/ Causal
Comparative Research

Question 8

An independent variable is identified but not manipulated by the experimenter, and the effects of the independent variable on the dependent variable are measured.

Answer 8

Quasi Experimental Research/ Causal
Comparative Research

Question 9

The researcher does not randomly assign groups and must use subjects that are naturally formed or pre existing groups.

Answer 9

Quasi Experimental Research/ Causal
Comparative Research

Question 10

Identified control groups exposed to the treatment variable are studied and compared to groups who are not.

Answer 10
