  2. Self-experimentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-experimentation

    Also referred to as Personal science or N-of-1 research, [1] self-experimentation is an example of citizen science, [2] since it can also be led by patients or people interested in their own health and well-being, as both research subjects and self-experimenters.

  3. Self-experimentation in medicine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-experimentation_in...

    Self-experimentation has value in rapidly obtaining the first results. In some cases, such as with Forssmann's experiments done in defiance of official permission, results may be obtained that would never otherwise have come to light. However, self-experiment lacks the statistical validity of a larger experiment.

  4. Single-subject research - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-subject_research

    The reversal design is the most powerful of the single-subject research designs showing a strong reversal from baseline ("A") to treatment ("B") and back again. If the variable returns to baseline measure without a treatment then resumes its effects when reapplied, the researcher can have greater confidence in the efficacy of that treatment.

  5. Research design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Research_design

    A strong research design yields valid answers to research questions while weak designs yield unreliable, imprecise or irrelevant answers. [ 1 ] Incorporated in the design of a research study will depend on the standpoint of the researcher over their beliefs in the nature of knowledge (see epistemology ) and reality (see ontology ), often shaped ...

  6. Single-subject design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-subject_design

    In design of experiments, single-subject curriculum or single-case research design is a research design most often used in applied fields of psychology, education, and human behaviour in which the subject serves as his/her own control, rather than using another individual/group. Researchers use single-subject design because these designs are ...

  7. Design of experiments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_of_experiments

    This example of design experiments is attributed to Harold Hotelling, building on examples from Frank Yates. [22] [23] [15] The experiments designed in this example involve combinatorial designs. [24] Weights of eight objects are measured using a pan balance and set of standard weights. Each weighing measures the weight difference between ...

    The latter is far from optimal, but the former, which changes only one variable at a time, is worse. See also the factorial experimental design methods pioneered by Sir Ronald A. Fisher. Reasons for disfavoring OFAT include: OFAT requires more runs for the same precision in effect estimation; OFAT cannot estimate interactions

  9. Template:Experimental design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Experimental_design

    To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used: {{Experimental design | state = collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar. {{Experimental design | state = expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
