Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, E

Feedback
Correct To implement a pretest-posttest design, it must be possible to collect pretest data.
Random assignment must be possible for both treatment and control groups.
Incorrect There is no need for a second control group for a pretest-posttest design.
There is no need for two posttreatment data collection times; only one is needed.
Randomization must be possible for both treatment and control groups.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, F

Feedback
Correct The Solomon four-group design is an experimental design.
The after-only design is an experimental design.
A true experimental pretest-posttest control group design is an experimental design.
Incorrect A nonequivalent control group design is a quasi-experimental design.
An after-only nonequivalent control group design is a quasi-experimental design.
A one-group pretest-posttest design is a quasi-experimental design.
A time series design is a quasi-experimental design.
