Study Notes
Differential Research Design
- Primary interest in research studies using the differential research design is to investigate the effect of different levels of an independent variable on a dependent variable.
- Participants are assigned to groups based on the level of the independent variable they receive.
- The differential research design compares the effects of different levels of an independent variable on a dependent variable.
- The differential research design does not involve randomly assigning participants to groups.
