9-2 Learning Objectives Understand... Uses for experimentation. Advantages and disadvantages of the experimental method. Seven steps of a well-planned experiment. Internal and external validity with experimental research designs. Three types of experimental designs and the variations of each.

9-3 Pull Quote “This is a time of [e-book app] experimentation. I’d be really disappointed if we weren’t seeing both successes and failures. I do think that everyone seems to be looking at these differently.” Barbara Marcus, consultant and adviser, Open Road Integrated Media

9-4 Causal Evidence Agreement between IVs and DVs Time order of occurrence Extraneous variables did not influence DVs
5
9-5 Causal Evidence?
6
9-6 Evaluation of Experiments Advantages Ability to manipulate IV Use of control group Control of extraneous variables Replication possible Field experiments possible Disadvantages Artificiality of labs Non-representative sample Expense Focus on present and immediate future Ethical limitations

9-7 Experimentation in the Research Process
8
9-8 Conducting an Experiment Specify treatment levels Control environment Choose experimental design Select and assign participants Pilot-test, revise, and test Collect data Analyze data Specify treatment variables

31
9-31 Research Thought Leaders “ There is no such thing as a failed experiment, only experiments with unexpected outcomes.” Richard Buckminster Fuller, engineer and architect
32
9-32 Research Thought Leaders “We need to keep an open mind and approach life as a series of experiments. We need to observe the experiments happening around us and create new ones. Instead of accepting the world as we think it is, we need to keep testing it to find out what it is and what works.” Jerry Wind Wharton School of Business, University of Pennsylvania
