quasi-experimental - ANSWER-In a(n) _______ design the investigator does not randomly assign
participants but does manipulate the independent variable and controls to enhance the internal
validity.



non-experimental - ANSWER-In a(n) ___________ design the researcher collects data without
introducing any treatment.

5. This experimental design is sometimes called a crossover design. In the repeated measure design
one group of subjects is exposed to more than one condition in random order.

________________design one group of subjects is exposed to more than one condition in random
order.

(Randomized controlled trial)

(May be used to test a new drug)

effect is being studied.



Non-experimental - ANSWER-Without the use of a comparison or control group, has little control
over the factors that affect the validity of the results.



quasi-experimental design - ANSWER-An experiment that does not require random assignment to
conditions.



Hypotheses - ANSWER-statements about a relationship between two or more variables



grounded theory - ANSWER-an inductive method of generating theory from data by creating
categories in which to place data and then looking for relationships among categories



qualitative research approaches - ANSWER-Approaches that are continually emerging
