Research on the results of laboratory and field experiments that examine the same variables suggests that:

A) the effect size of the independent variable on the dependent variable is very similar.
B) the impact of the independent variable on the dependent variable is marked by dissimilarity.
C) independent variables in field experiments must be manipulated differently from laboratory experiments.
D) these experiments must be conducted in similar settings for the results to be complementary.

Effect Size

The extent to which two variables are associated. In experimental research, the magnitude of the impact of the independent variable on the dependent variable.

Independent Variable

A variable that is manipulated or controlled in an experiment to observe its effect on a dependent variable.

Field Experiments

Research studies conducted in natural settings outside the laboratory to investigate the effect of manipulated variables in real-world situations.

  • Recognize the value and methodologies of replicating findings in research.

Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The research suggests that the effect size of the independent variable on the dependent variable is very similar in both laboratory and field experiments. Therefore, the best choice is A.
