Laila Lankford · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  The correlated groups design is not a quasi-experimental design, but rather a type of correlational design, where the researcher measures two or more naturally occurring groups on the same variables, and then assesses the degree of correlation or association between the groups. The other options listed, the nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design, interrupted time series design, and control series design, are all quasi-experimental designs commonly used in research.
