1) Different participants are used in each condition of the experiment a) Independent Groups Design b) Repeated Measures Design c) Matched Pairs Design d) Counterbalancing e) Randomisation 2) The same participants are used in each condition of the experiment a) Independent Measures Design  b) Matched Pairs Design c) Counterbalancing d) Repeated Measures Design e) Randomisation 3) Participants are matched in each condition on variables relevant to the experiment, e.g. age and gender a) Independent Groups Design  b) Repeated Measures Design c) Randomisation d) Matched Pairs Design e) Counterbalancing 4) The name of the group that exists for comparison and receives no experimental treatment a) Control condition b) Counterbalancing c) Independent Groups Design d) Repeated Measures Design e) Randomisation 5) An advantage of this design is that there is no problem with order effects e.g. tiredness or practice a) Repeated Groups Design  b) Randomisation c) Control Condition d) Matched Pairs Design e) Independent Groups Design 6) An advantage of this design is that fewer participants are needed a) Independent Groups Design  b) Matched Pairs Design c) Repeated Measures Design d) Randomisation e) Counterbalancing 7) A disadvantage of this design is that individual differences between the groups of participants taking part in different condition could lead to errors in results a) Repeated Measures Design   b) Matched Pairs Design c) Counterbalancing d) Control Condition e) Independent Groups Design 8) This term refers to equal numbers of participants undertaking the task required of them in different orders a) Counterbalancing b) Randomisation c) Control Condition d) Independent Groups Design e) Repeated Measures Design 9) Which experimental design is difficult to achieve and time consuming a) Independent Groups Design  b) Repeated Measures Design c) Matched Pairs Design d) Counterbalancing e) Control Condition 10) This involves adopting a random strategy for deciding the order of presentation of experimental conditions by, for example, drawing lots a) Control Condition b) Counterbalancing c) Matched Pairs Design d) Randomisation e) Repeated Measures Design
