Matched: To match the groups on the variables that may effect DV Matching by frequencies Matching by averages
Both designs are used for balancing the confounding variables To control for reactivity placebo control and double blind techniques are used
2. Naming the colour in words when colour of print and words are different GREEN BLUE RED YELLOW
Incomplete designs
Different individuals receive different orders of conditions Order effect is balanced out across participants

For two conditions AB and 8 sets of trials randomly selected sequence of AB will be AB, BA, AB, AB, .
ABBA
A random sequence o f all conditions are presented followed by the opposite of the sequence For two conditions and eight sets of trials sequence will be AB, BA, AB, BA, AB, BA, AB, BA Use
When it is not possible to administer conditions often enough to be balanced
