The Simple Experiment

1. If we want to know if a therapy works, we would use
	the experimental method
	the non-experimental method

2. The control group receives
	no treatment
	the treatment

3. The hypothesis that the drug has no effect on behavior is
	an experimental hypothesis
	a null hypothesis

4. We can accept the null hypothesis
	True
	False

5. To have a simple experiment, you must
	conduct the study in a laboratory
	randomly assign participants to condition

6. If the results are statistically significant, they
	are probably due to chance alone
	are probably NOT due to chance alone

7. If the results are statistically significant, then the treatment probably
	does have an effect.
	does NOT have an effect.

8. If the results are not statistically significant, then
	you can conclude that the treatment has no effect.
	you cannot conclude anything.
