This is the type of research that requires planning and building a recruitment process.

Proactive research 

100

This type of validity determines whether observed differences in the dependent variable are due to the intervention. 

Internal

100

[Blank] must occur before intervention.

Randomization

100

This type of design is often used in social service programs.

Pre-experimental

100

The name of this research design is:

X O


One-Group Posttest Only

200

This is a controlled study where subjects are randomly assigned to groups and will receive a new intervention from those in the control group. 

Experiment

200

This internal threat says that there was bias in choosing and assigning participants to groups.

Selection of subjects.

200

This is the group that does not receive the intervention.

Control

200

When randomization is not possible, [blank] is the next best thing.

Matching

200

The name of this research design is:

R. O1. X. O2

R. O1.     O2

R.       X. O2

R.           O2

Solomon Four-Group design

300

This is the type of research where the researcher may draw on existing data.

Retroactive research

300

This internal threat occurs when extraneous variables interact with each other.

Interaction Effects

300

This is the procedure used when neither the subjects nor the researcher knows which group subjects belong to.

Double-blind procedure

300

This type of design includes these three sub-designs: 

Nonequivalent Control Group

Time-Series (Interrupted Series)

Multiple-Time Series

Quasi-Experimental

300

The name of this research design is:

O1. O2. O3. X. O4. O5. O6

O1. O2. O3.     O4. O5. O6

Multiple-Time Series design

400

These two types of research designs do not require random assignment of participants.

Pre-experimental

Quasi-experimental 

400

This external threat occurs when there are problems obtaining a random sample.

Interactive Effects of Selection Biases and any Research Stimulus

400

This research design does not use a pretest before intervention. 

Posttest-Only Control Group

400

This type of design has no serious threats to internal validity.

Multiple-time series

400

The name of this research design is:

R. O1. X. O2

R. O1.     O2

Pretest-Posttest Control Group design

500

It is crucial to lessen the chances of these types of factors influencing your dependent variable and keeping the researcher from making confident conclusions about findings. 

Extraneous
500

This external threat occurs when subjects respond or behave differently based on the environment they are in. 

Reactive Effects of Arrangements

500

This type of research design uses tests before and after to measure the effect of an intervention.

Pretest-Posttest Control Group

500

The main threat to nonequivalent control group design is:

Interaction of selection with maturation, history or testing

500

The name of this research design is:

O1. X. O2

O1.     O2 

Nonequivalent Control Group design
