Q1. What are the features of quasi-experimental variables and designs? Under what conditions would this kind of approach be appropriate? Provide at least one example in your response.
A quasi-experiment is defined as an experiment which is not true (Margaret A. Handley, 2018). This definition comes from the fact that the main components of a true test are randomly selected groups. The variables in quasi-experiments are not randomly selected, and the designs are made to work with fixed existing groups.
