It affects subject behaviour and contaminates the experiment.
- GoblinSlayer 3y agoIf the outcome of the experiment is obvious and predictable, how can you make it unpredictable? And how it demonstrates failure to reproduce? This sounds like a generic argument against psychological experiments, because you can't have them in perfect conditions, you have to see through imperfection.
- yreg 3y agoWell yes, psychological experiments are super hard to do, often borderline impossible.
