Detailed explanation-1: -The main aim of experimental research is to draw a cause-and-effect relationship between the variables. In this type of research, the researcher manipulates one variable (independent variable ) while its effect is measured on the second variable (dependent variable).
Detailed explanation-2: -The treatment group (also called the experimental group) receives the treatment whose effect the researcher is interested in. The control group receives either no treatment, a standard treatment whose effect is already known, or a placebo (a fake treatment to control for placebo effect).
Detailed explanation-3: -Treatment and control groups. In experimental research, some subjects are administered one or more experimental stimulus called a treatment (the treatment group ) while other subjects are not given such a stimulus (the control group ).
Detailed explanation-4: -The control group and experimental group are compared against each other in an experiment. The only difference between the two groups is that the independent variable is changed in the experimental group. The independent variable is “controlled” or held constant in the control group.
