A computer software company wishes to know whether Microsoft’s Word is better than Apple’s Pages. Eight equally proficient microcomputer operators are randomly divided into two equal groups. One group is given Word and the other is given Pages. The mean time to produce perfect copies of the same document is 52 minutes for the group using Word and 44 minutes for the group using Pages. The sums of squares for Word is 22 and for Pages, it is 26.
What is the research design?
Independent groups
Matched subjects
Repeated measures
Non-experimental (observational)
