Experiments vs. Observation
DefinitionAn observational study observes individuals and measures variableswithout influencing the responses.
DefinitionAn experiment applies a treatment to the individuals and observes ormeasures variables to see the effect of the treatment.
In order to observe a cause-and-effect relationship, an experimentis much better than an observational study.Why?

Example
Example (Treatments)In an attempt to determine which of two Statistics books helps thestudents learn better, an experiment was designed.One section of Statistics used the book “Statistics in Practice.”Another section used the book “Basic Statistics.”At the end of the semester, the average final grade of each sectionwas calculated.
What are the explanatory and response variables?Describe the “treatment” applied.

Confounded Variables
In the previous example, if a difference in final grades wasobserved, what might be the explanation?
The choice of textbook?The professor?The class size?The time when the class met?Which semester?Background of the students?
We say that the explanatory variable (the textbook) is confoundedby these other variables.

Definition (Subjects)In an experiment, the individuals are called subjects.
Definition (Factors)In an experiment, the explanatory variables are called factors.
Definition (Treatment)In an experiment, a treatment is a specific combination of values of thefactors.

Example (Randomized Experiment)There is more than one way.
One possibility:
Number the students 1 to 100.Use randInt(1,100) fifty times to assign 50 students to Prof.Smith.The rest go to Prof. Jones.Renumber each group 1 to 50.Use randInt(1,50) twenty-five times to assign 25 students ineach group to “Statistics in Practice.”The rest use “Basic Statistics.”

Number the students 1 to 100.Use randInt(1,100) fifty times to assign 50 students to Prof.Smith.The rest go to Prof. Jones.Renumber each group 1 to 50.Use randInt(1,50) twenty-five times to assign 25 students ineach group to “Statistics in Practice.”The rest use “Basic Statistics.”

Randomized Experiments
Would the randomized design just described eliminate theconfounding of variables?
Why not?What further steps could we take?
