Definitions:

Field Settings

Real-world environments outside of the laboratory where research is conducted or observations are made in a natural context.

Quasi-Experimental Design

A research design that attempts to establish a cause-and-effect relationship but does not employ random assignment to conditions, making it less strict than a true experimental design.

Random Assignment

The process of allocating participants randomly to different groups in an experiment to ensure each group is similar at the start.

Independent Variables
