    • 2. ExperimentA research investigation in which conditions are controlled One independent variable is manipulated (sometimes more than one) Its effect on a dependent variable is measured To test a hypothesis
    • 3. Manipulation of the Independent Variable Selection of Dependent Variable Assignment of Subjects (or other Test Units) Control Over Extraneous VariablesBasic Issues of Experimental Design
    • 4. Experiment TreatmentAlternative manipulations of the independent variable being investigated
    • 5. Independent VariableThe experimenter controls independent variable. The variable’s value can be manipulated by the experimenters to whatever they wish it to be.
    • 6. Manipulation of Independent VariableClassificatory vs. Continuous Variables Experimental and Control Groups Treatment Levels More Than One Independent Variable
    • 7. Dependent VariableIts value is expected to be dependent on the experimenter’s manipulation Criterion or standard by which the results are judged
    • 8. TEST UNITS - subjects or entities whose response to the experimental treatment are measured or observed.
