In social sciences, non-experimental research is inferior to experimental research.

True or False

False

In social sciences it is often the case that a true experimental approach is inappropriate and often

unethical. For example, conducting a true experiment may require the researcher to deny needed treatment to a patient, which is clearly an ethical issue.
