III. Discussion:
The field settings in which some assignments are difficult or impossible are the
situations that are mostly conducted by the quasi-experiments. “They are often conducted
to evaluate the effectiveness of a treatment—perhaps a type of psychotherapy or an educational
intervention.” Quasi-experimental design, is somewhat like true experiments, aims to
identify the fundamental relationship between an independent and dependent variable.
However, quasi-experiments utilize non-random criteria while assigning subjects to
groups. “When individuals are not randomly assigned, the procedure is called a quasi-
experiment. When individuals can be randomly assigned to groups, the procedure is called a true
experiment.”
Use of control Requires the use of control Control groups are not required
groups and treatment groups. (although they are commonly used).
There are different types of quasi-experiments, but the reporter will discuss just a few of
the most common ones here.
