CHARACTERISTICS OF “IDEAL” EXPERIMENTS Controlling the Time Order of Variables Manipulating the Independent Variable Establishing Relationships Between Variables Controlling Rival Hypotheses Holding Extraneous Variables Constant Using Correlated Variation Using Analysis of Covariance Using a Control Group Randomly Assigning Research Participants to Groups Matched Pairs
3
THREATS TO INTERNAL VALIDITY History Maturation Testing Instrumentation Error Statistical Regression Differential Selection of Research Participants Mortality Reactive Effects of Research Participants Interaction Effects Relations Between Experimental and Control Groups –Diffusion of treatments –Compensatory equalization –Compensatory rivalry –Demoralization
