Dominique Bass · Answer 1

Non-equivalent control group design

Explanation:

Non-equivalent group design also called a quasi-experimental design. In this research design, the research has been used method and procedure to observe in a study. The study has been structured and equal to the experiment. There is some lack in the experience of a person's condition because the study lacks random assignment that includes some preexisting factors. It does not include the comparison and control group in the study. This study lacks the equivalent and appropriate comparison between the groups. There is some quasi-independent variable in the study.
