EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH DESIGN

Observation
Survey
Experiment
You search through several oral or written forms of communication to find answers to your research questions. You not only examines printed materials but you also analyze information.
What type of data collection technique?

- (usually a structured observation) are likely to be carried out in a physical laboratory. The researcher decides where the observation will take place, at what time, with which participants, in what circumstances and uses a standardized procedure. Participants are randomly allocated to each independent variable group.
