controleexperimenten
Controleexperimenten, also known as control experiments, are a fundamental aspect of scientific methodology. Their primary purpose is to isolate the effect of a specific variable on an outcome. In essence, a control experiment involves comparing an experimental group, which is subjected to the variable being tested, with a control group, which is not. Both groups are treated identically in all other respects, ensuring that any observed differences can be attributed solely to the manipulated variable.
There are several types of control experiments. A positive control is a group that is expected to
The implementation of control experiments is crucial for establishing causality and reducing the likelihood of drawing
