A control condition, also known as a control group, is an important part of an experimental design because it allows one to identify other factors that might be causing the effect that is being examined. In this particular case bad driving is the effect that is being examined. If a control condition was not used, researchers may conclude that adults who use cell phones while driving are bad drivers. However, the study would not distinguish between bad driving caused by talking on the phone versus

(Muijs, 2010, p. 20). The relationship between two variables

Research Worksheet Jesse Travis Midwestern University   Research Worksheet Questions What hierarchy of evidence is used when making decisions about clinical interventions? While research has long paralleled medicine, the use of strong research evidence as the basis for clinical action is more recent (Houser, 2015). The historically accepted hierarchy of evidence separates evidence into levels of trust, from highest to lowest (Greenhalgh, 2010): 1. Systematic reviews of randomized controlled trails

Our study will have eleven participants in the control group and eleven participants in the experimental study. The participants in this study will be of college age (18 – 25) and recruited through convenience sampling. Each group member is responsible for recruiting two participants, one for each control group following the outlined criteria. Location: Since the data collected from this study will be in the form of a self-reported survey completed online, there are no specific limitations or requirements

134). The question for the researchers remained what is the effect of “experimentally manipulated motivational conditions on elementary math scores” (Brown & Wahlberg, 1993, p. 133). The study remains a randomized quantitative mixed methods quasi-experimental study of 406 heterogeneously grouped students in third, fourth and sixth through eighth grades in Chicago Public Schools (Brown & Wahlberg, 1993). Three schools were selected to participate in the study. The student populations in each school were
