Quasi Design RM

Quasi-experimental research design is a method used to study cause and effect without random assignment, often due to practical or ethical constraints. It involves comparing groups based on pre-existing characteristics and includes common types such as nonequivalent control group design and pre-test/post-test design. While challenges like confounding variables exist, quasi-experimental designs are valuable for real-world research applications.
