Answer 1

Correlational Designs
Quasi- Experimental Designs

Question 2

What is Correlation Design?

Answer 2

It shows relationships between sets of antecedent condition and behavioural effects .
Antecedents are preexisting (manipulated or controlled by the researcher)

What is Quasi-Experimental Design?

Answer 3

Real Experiments
To compare behavioural differences associated with different types of subjects.
Lack of manipulation of antecedents
