Reduced experimental control, severe limitations on collecting detailed information and otherwise interacting with participants, and difficulty obtaining consent are all weaknesses most closely associated with which type of experimental method?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The weaknesses mentioned in the question are associated with field experiments. Field experiments are conducted in natural settings, where there is reduced control over variables and difficulty in obtaining detailed information and consent from participants. In contrast, lab experiments have high experimental control, computational modelling is not an experimental method, randomised clinical trials and functional neuroimaging studies often involve more invasive procedures where there is more control and detailed data collection is possible.
