Detailed explanation-1: -Quasi-experiments have lower internal validity than true experiments, but they often have higher external validity as they can use real-world interventions instead of artificial laboratory settings.
Detailed explanation-2: -True Experimental Design: It relies on statistical analysis to prove or disprove a hypothesis, making it the most accurate form of research. Of the types of experimental design, only true design can establish a cause-effect relationship within a group.
Detailed explanation-3: -A true experiment uses random assignment of the participants while quasi-experiments does not. This allows its wide use in ethical problems. Quasi-experiments allots the participants based on a study, unlike true experiments where they have an equal chance of getting into any of the groups.
Detailed explanation-4: -What Is a Quasi-experiment? Quasi-experiments are studies that aim to evaluate interventions but that do not use randomization. Similar to randomized trials, quasi-experiments aim to demonstrate causality between an intervention and an outcome.
