- Explain why it is important to standardize the procedure of an experiment and several ways to do this.
- Explain what pilot testing is and why it is important.
The information presented so far in this chapter is enough to design a basic experiment. When it comes time to conduct that experiment, however, several additional practical issues arise. In this section, we consider some of these issues and how to deal with them. Much of this information applies to nonexperimental studies as well as experimental ones.
