Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The inclusion of a pretest in the experimental design indicates that the researchers are aware of the potential for pretest reactivity, which occurs when participants change their behavior simply because they are aware they are being studied. The pretest allows the researchers to assess and potentially control for this effect. Therefore, this experimental design is recommended for studies in which pretest reactivity is likely to occur.
