Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFExperimental design is a statistically based approach in which the researcher combines different variables.
Key Points
- Experimental Design is genuinely experimental because the sample is chosen using randomized procedures.
- There are numerous options designs available under "True-Experiment" are following:
- Two groups randomized subjects post-test only design
- Two groups randomized matched subjects post-test only design
- Randomized groups pre-test post-test design
- Randomized Solomon three group design
- Randomized Solomon four groups design
Thus, Two groups of randomized subjects with post-test only design and Randomised groups with pre-test post-test design belong to the category of true experimental design.
Hence statements B and D are correct.
Additional Information
- In a randomized experimental design, objects or individuals are assigned to an experimental group at random.
- Any multi-variable experiment must follow experimental design principles to ensure validity and efficiency.
- Four major design types with relevance to user research are experimental, quasi-experimental, correlational, and single subject.
