Research Methods
Independent measures: multiple experimental groups are used and participants are only in one group. Each participant is only in one condition of the independent variable during the experiment.
Repeated Measures: uses the same subjects with every branch of research, including the control. For instance, repeated measurements are collected in a longitudinal study in which change over time is assessed. Other (non-repeated measures) studies compare the same measure under two or more different conditions.
Matched Pairs: special case of a randomized block design. It can be used when the experiment has only two treatment conditions; and subjects can be grouped into pairs, based on some blocking variable. Then, within each pair, subjects are randomly assigned to different treatments.
Temperment: a person's or animal's nature, especially as it permanently affects their behaviour.
