Detailed explanation-1: -An experimental group, also known as a treatment group, receives the treatment whose effect researchers wish to study, whereas a control group does not. They should be identical in all other ways.
Detailed explanation-2: -Negative control group: In this type of control group, the participants are not given a treatment. The experimental group can then be compared to the group that did not experience any change or results.
Detailed explanation-3: -Basically, the experimental condition is when the researcher manipulates the independent variable to assess its effect on the dependent variable. Under the experimental conditions, the participants receive experimental treatment while the participants in the control group do not receive any treatment.
Detailed explanation-4: -In true experimental research, the researcher not only manipulates the independent variable, he or she also randomly assigned individuals to the various treatment categories (i.e., control and treatment). In quasi experimental research, the researcher does not randomly assign subjects to treatment and control groups.
