context_page_description: In the design of experiments, a between-group design is an experiment that has two or more groups of subjects each being tested by a different testing factor simultaneously. This design is usually used in place of, or in some cases in conjunction with, the within-subject design, which applies the same variations of conditions to each subject to observe the reactions. The simplest between-group design occurs with two groups; one is generally regarded as the treatment group, which receives the ‘special’ treatment, and the control group, which receives no variable treatment and is used as a reference The between-group design is widely used in psychological, economic, and sociological experiments, as well as in several other fields in the natural or social sciences.

The between-group design is widely used in psychological, economic, and sociological experiments, as well as in several other fields in the natural or social sciences.
