Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4

Answer to Question 2

A
Quasi-experimental designs are intervention studies that lack randomization but the researcher exercises certain controls. A quasi-experimental study might include all subjects who have a certain procedure and they would be tested in a pre/post test design so that the subjects serve as their own controls. In this design, it's not certain whether some other variable than the independent variables caused a change or improvement of the condition. A quasi-experimental design is less robust than a true experimental design. The quasi-experimental design is often used in nursing and behavioral science because random assignment may be unethical or otherwise not possible.
