Types of Experimental Designs - Dartmouth College
Quasi-Experimental Designs
*Adapted from Fraenkel, J. R. and Wallen, N. E. (2003). How to design and evaluate research in education (5th ed.). Boston: McGraw-Hill.
The Matching-Only Posttest-Only Control Group Design
| |Matching |Treatment |Posttest |
|Treatment group |Mr |X1 |O |
|Control group |Mr |X2 |O |
• No random assignment and subjects only matched on some variables.
The Matching-Only Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design
| |Pretest |Matching |Treatment |Posttest |
|Treatment group |O |Mr |X1 |O |
|Control group |O |Mr |X2 |O |
• No random assignment and subjects only matched on some variables.
Counterbalanced Designs
| |Treatment |Observation |Treatment |Observation |Treatment |Observation |
|Group I |X1 |O |X2 |O |X3 |O |
|Group II |X2 |O |X3 |O |X1 |O |
|Group III |X3 |O |X1 |O |X2 |O |
• Each group is exposed to all treatments in an attempt to equate the groups. The treatments given in different orders (randomly) to reduce order effects.
• This design is good for reducing subject characteristic threats, but is vulnerable to multiple-treatment interference.
Time-Series Design
O1 |O2 |O3 |O4 |O5 |X |O6 |O7 |O8 |O9 |O10 | |A great deal of data is collected.
• Threats to validity include history, instrumentation, and testing.
