The Experimental Method
Identify independentdependentconfounding, & control variables in experimental designs.

Describe how research design drives the reasonable conclusions that can be drawn.
  • Experiments are useful for determining cause & effect.
  • The use of experimental controls reduces alternative explanations.
  • Random assignment is needed to demonstrate cause & effect.
  • Correlational research can indicate if there is a relationship or association between two variables but cannot demonstrate cause & effect.
Distinguish between random assignment of participants to conditions in experiments & random selection of participants, primarily in correlational studies & surveys.
