Iterative Pilot Testing
Pilot testing is an iterative process. If an initial pilot test reveals problems with the experimental design, the researcher should solve those issues, modify the procedure, and then run another pilot test. This cycle of testing, refining, and re-testing continues until the procedure works flawlessly and the researcher is ready to proceed with the actual study.
