quasi-experimental research  

Definition(s)

  • Quasi-experiments are research experiments that involve interventions or treatments, have criterion or outcome measures, and units (e.g., participants, classrooms, schools). However, unlike true experiments, quasi-experiments do not make use of random selection or assignment to create the comparisons that will be used to infer that treatment-caused changes have occurred.
