| Question | Answer |
| Across-subjects Counterbalancing | A technique for controlling progressive error that pools all subjects' data together to equalize the effects of progressive error for each condition. |
| Balanced Latin Square | A partial counterbalancing technique for constructing a matrix, or square, of sequences in which each treatment condition (1) appears only once in each position in a sequence and (2) precedes and follows every other condition an equal number of times. |
| Block randomization | A process of randomization that first created treatment blocks containing one random order of the conditiions in the experiment; subjects are then assigned to fill each successive treatment block. |
| Carryover effect | The persistence of the effect of a treatment condition after the condition ends. |
| Complete counterbalancing | A technique for controlling progressive error using all possible sequences that can be formed out of the treatment conditions and using each sequence the same number of times. |
| counterbalancing | A technique for controlling order effects by distributing progressive error across the different treatment conditions of the experiment; may also control carryover effects. |
| Fatigue effects | Changes in performance caused by fatigue, boredom, or irritation. |
| Latin square counterbalancing | A partial counterbalancing tecjnique in which a matrix or square of sequences is contructed so that each treatment appears only once in any order position. |
| mixed design | A factorial design that combines within-subjects and between-subjects factors. |
| Order effects | Change in subjects' performance that occurs when a condition falls in different positions in a squence of treatments. |
| Partial counterbalancing | A technique for controlling progressive error by using some subset of the available sequences of treatment conditions. |
| power | the chance of detecting a genuine effect of teh independent variable. |
| Practice effect | Change in subjects' performance resulting from practice |
| progressive error | Changes in subjects' responses that are caused by testing in multiple treatment conditions; includes order effects, such as the effects of practice or fatigue. |
| Randomized partial counterbalancing | The simplest partial counterbalancing procedure in which the experimenter randomly selects as many sequences of treatment conditions as there are aubjects for teh experiment. |
| Reverse counterbalancing | A technique for controlling progressive error for each individual subject by presenting all treatment conditions twice, first in one order, then in the reverse order. |
| Subject-by-subject counterbalancing | A technique for controlling progressive error for each individual subject by presenting all treatment conditions more than once. |
| Within-subjects design | A design in which each subject takes part in more than once condition of the experiment; also called a repeated-measures design. |
| Within-subjects factorial design | A factorial design in which subjects receive all conditions in the experiment. |
