Increasingly, political scientists use the term 'experiment' or
'experimental' to describe their empirical research. One of the
primary reasons for doing so is the advantage of experiments in
establishing causal inferences. In this book, Rebecca B. Morton and
Kenneth C. Williams discuss in detail how experiments and
experimental reasoning with observational data can help researchers
determine causality. They explore how control and random assignment
mechanisms work, examining both the Rubin causal model and the
formal theory approaches to causality. They also cover general
topics in experimentation such as the history of experimentation in
political science; internal and external validity of experimental
research; types of experiments - field, laboratory, virtual, and
survey - and how to choose, recruit, and motivate subjects in
experiments. They investigate ethical issues in experimentation,
the process of securing approval from institutional review boards
for human subject research, and the use of deception in
experimentation.
