Questions and Answers

What is a limitation of Pre-Experimental Designs in establishing cause-and-effect relationships?

  • The independent variable doesn’t vary
  • Experimental and control groups are not equivalent (correct)
  • The quasi-experiment lacks internal validity
  • The researcher has limited leverage over participants
  • What is a key advantage of True Experimental Designs over Pre-Experimental Designs?

  • Greater external validity
  • Lack of random assignment
  • Limited control over study variables
  • Higher internal validity (correct)
  • Why is random assignment crucial in True Experimental Designs?

  • To guarantee external validity
  • To introduce bias into the study
  • To ensure differences between groups are due to chance (correct)
  • To limit control over study variables
  • What distinguishes Quasi-Experimental Designs from True Experimental Designs?
