Question

to compare weight loss programs, one group is told to exercise and one group is told to not exercise. is this a blind experiment, double blind experiment, or neither? why? blind, since the individual knows who is getting which treatment but the researcher does not neither, since both the researcher and the individual know who is getting which treatment blind, since neither the researcher nor the individual knows who is getting which treatment double blind, since neither the researcher nor the individual knows who is getting which treatment double blind, since both the researcher and the individual know who is getting which treatment blind, since the researcher knows who is getting which treatment but the individual does not

Explanation:

In a blind experiment, participants (individuals) don't know which treatment they receive, but researchers might know. In a double - blind experiment, neither participants nor researchers know. In this case, the individuals know if they are told to exercise or not, and the researcher also knows (as they assigned the groups). So it's neither a blind nor double - blind experiment because both the researcher and the individual are aware of who is getting which treatment.

Answer:

B. neither, since both the researcher and the individual know who is getting which treatment
