Single-Blind Study
A single-blind study is an experimental setup where the participants are unaware of their condition assignment, but the experimenter administering the procedure knows the groups. While this design controls for participant expectations, it fails to protect against experimenter expectancy effects, making it more susceptible to researcher bias than a double-blind study.
