there is no control group
are you 100 percent sure?
what is control group ?
control group is a group that you don't do anything to for comparison
or that you give a placebo to to make sure improvements are not the result of the placebo effect
okay and is D correct 100 percent?
To me any one of those can be correct im not sure?
let's go through the options one by one, shall we?
Option A: there are slightly fewer women than men in the study, but the sample sizes are acceptable.
That is true there are fewer woman than men tested?
yes, but I don't think it's significant.
okay next
Options B and C: things like this don't make a study valid, what makes a study valid is a LACK of things that make it INVALID. Only choose things like this if the study is valid, and then I would go with one like C before one like B.
Group size isn't as important as people think it is.
the important one is Option D. In a study there should ALWAYS be a control group that is either given no treatment or a placebo treatment.
Isn't that in an experiment this is only a study or are they the same?
a study like this is a kind of experiment.
