Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Jerome is part of the waiting-list control group, which is a group of participants who do not receive the experimental treatment initially but are held in reserve to receive the treatment later. This allows researchers to compare outcomes between those receiving the treatment and those waiting to receive it, helping to control for external factors and measure the treatment's effectiveness more accurately.
