22.A testable prediction, often implied by theory
24.The outcome factor; the variable that may change in response to manipulations of the independent variable.
26.Assigning participants to experimental and control conditions by chance, thus minimizing preexisting differences between those assigned to the different groups.
27.The group in an experiment that contrasts with the experimental condition and serves as a comparison for evaluating the effect of the treatment.
