Cooley et al. (2009) randomly assigned either of two treatments, naturopathic care (diet counseling, breathing techniques, vitamins, and a herbal medicine) or stan- dardized psychotherapy (psychotherapy with breathing techniques and a placebo added), to 81 individuals having moderate to severe anxiety. Anxiety scores decreased an average of 57% in the naturopathic group and 31% in the psychotherapy group. Is this an experimental or observational study?

Respuesta :

Answer: Experimental study

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an experimental study because it involves determination of the effect of each treatment on separate individuals. It involves selecting the 81 individuals randomly to be treated with a particular treatment (either of the two treatment). In experimental study the researcher apply separate treatments on a different groups and measure its effect on each of the groups.
