The study by Thornhill et al. (2003) can be classified as quasi-experimental because it involves an intervention (smelling worn t-shirts) but lacks random assignment of participants to conditions. It is also correlational because it examines the relationship between the perceived sexiness of the scent and potentially other variables without manipulating any variables.
