12-B: Experimental design types review

Learning Objectives:

• Be able to distinguish between and within and matched subjects designs

• Understand why this distinction is important for statistical analyses

Rationale:

• You should be able to differentiate between types of research designs (between, within, and matched) because these design types will lead to different statistical computations. For example, if we have the same participants in each group (within subjects), we can look at the difference, or change, in people across conditions. But, we if have independent participants in each condition (between subjects), we may want to look at how the group averages differ from one another.
