One day, you get this email:   Dear Tutor, I am having some trouble understanding why it is so important to randomly assign participants to experimental conditions.

Why is it important to go through the trouble of randomizing participants? Also, if you are going to randomly assign participants, how should you do it?  Respond to this student’s email, being sure to explain the concepts at the appropriate level for an undergraduate. In your response, be sure that you explain why it is important to randomize participants. Also, explain some of the ways that a researcher can randomly assign participants.

-An explanation of the methods of randomization that a researcher can use to randomly assign participants 

-An explanation of how a researcher can draw conclusions without randomization   Guidelines for Submission: Your paper must be submitted as a Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins.
