The Experimental Group:

• controls for rival causal factors

• is exposed the treatment variable

• is exposed to the dependent variable

involves the elimination of other variables that could conceivably explain away the original relationships of the study

• Rival Causal Factors

• Spurious Relationship

• External Variables

• Internal Variables

A design in which the subjects nor people administering the experiment are aware of which is each group in study

• Placebo Effect

• Double-Blind Experiment

• Maturation

• Self-Fulfilling Prophecy

______ refers to other specific events that may have taken place during the course of the study.
