a type of research design where a comparison is made, as in an experiment, but no random assignment of participants to groups occurs

Quasi-Experiments

a behavior is measured twice

pretest-posttest designs

events that occur during the course of a study to all or individual participants that can result inn bias

history effect

occur when participants are tested multiple times and each subsequent test is affected by the previous tests

testing effects

can occur when participants score higher or lower than their personal average—the next time they are tested, they are more likely to score near their personal average, making scores unreliable

Regression toward the mean

pretest-posttest design w/two sets of nonequivalent groups, one set that takes the pretest and posttest and one set that takes only the posttest

Solomon 4 group design

a research design where patterns of scores over time are compared from before a treatment is implemented and after a treatment is implemented

time series designs

a time series design where the “treatment” is an independent event, such as a historical event

interrupted time series design

a time series design where the "treatment" is implemented by the researcher

non-interrupted time series design 7

natural changes that occur to the participants during the course of a study that can result in bias

maturation

occurs when participants choose not to complete a study.
