科学领域:
- 公共卫生 公共卫生
- 青少年健康 青少年健康
- 控制烟草的控制方式
背景情况:
- 青少年吸烟是一个重大的公共卫生问题,特别是在阿曼,男性吸烟率很高.
- 需要有效的预防策略来解决阿曼青少年男性的吸烟行为.
研究的目的:
- 评估一款摄影老化应用 (PA) 和一款学校教育模块 (SBM) 对青少年男性烟草知识,态度和行为的有效性.
- 为了比较PA和SBM干预措施对烟草危害和易受烟草使用的感知的影响.
主要方法:
- 一个集群随机试验,涉及227名公立学校男孩 (9-12年级) 在阿曼北阿尔巴蒂纳.

Group Design
8.8K
The most basic experimental design involves two groups: the experimental group and the control group. The two groups are designed to be the same except for one difference— experimental manipulation. The experimental group gets the experimental manipulation—that is, the treatment or variable being tested—and the control group does not. Since experimental manipulation is the only difference between the experimental and control groups, we can be sure that any differences between...

Randomized Experiments
6.6K
The randomization process involves assigning study participants randomly to experimental or control groups based on their probability of being equally assigned. Randomization is meant to eliminate selection bias and balance known and unknown confounding factors so that the control group is similar to the treatment group as much as possible. A computer program and a random number generator can be used to assign participants to groups in a way that minimizes bias.

Blinding
2.3K
Blinding is a commonly used method of not telling participants which treatment a subject is receiving. Blinding is a critical part of a randomized control trial or RCT. It reduces the bias that affects the results. In an RCT, blinding is used in the form of a placebo. A placebo effect occurs when untreated subjects falsely believe they have received the treatment and report improved symptoms. A placebo or a dummy treatment is administered to subjects to negate the bias caused by such an effect.

What is an Experiment?
10.0K
An experiment is a planned activity carried out under controlled conditions. The purpose of an experiment is to investigate the relationship between two variables. When one variable causes change in another, we call the first variable the explanatory or independent variable. The affected variable is called the response or dependent variable. In a randomized experiment, the researcher manipulates values of the explanatory variable and measures the resulting changes in the response variable. The...
