Introduction to Educational Research:
A Critical Thinking Approach
Introduction to Educational ResearchChapter 10: Common Experimental Research Designs
Research Design
Researchers are designers, much like architects, creating different types of designs in their blueprints
Experimental Research Designs
Intervention or treatment known as a manipulation True experimental Quasi-experimental Single-subject
Introduction to Educational ResearchChapter 10: Common Experimental Research Designs
True Experimental Designs
Research using designs that incorporate one or more true independent variables (manipulation plus random assignment)
Strong for testing cause-and-effect relationships Randomized posttest control group design Randomized pretest-posttest control group design Randomized matched control group design

New reading program, Principal of Adams just arbitrarily named 10 students, had them participate, and gave a post-test.
What can we say about the results?

New reading program, Principal of Adams, randomly selected and assigned 10 students to each group, administered a pre-test had them participate, and gave a post-test.
What can we say about the results? Gain scores

(Pre) M R T Post (Pre) M R C Post
New reading program, Principal of Adams, gives a pre-test to students. Using pre-test scores, matching pairs of students, random assignment to group. Each group similar composition with regard to the subject characteristic of the pre-test.
What can we say about the results?

Randomized Factorial Designs
Interaction effect Occurring in factorial designs when the influence of one
factor depends on the level or category of a second factor (e.g., a treatment affects males but not females). Keyword is “depends”
Main effect Occurring in factorial designs when the averages between
categories of one factor overall are different (e.g., females averaged over treatment and control groups score differently than males averaged over treatment and control groups). Keyword is "overall"

Quasi-Experimental Design
A research design that incorporates a quasi independent variable (an independent variable manipulation without random assignment)
Matched comparison group design
Time-series design
Counterbalanced Quasi-experiment
