Why is it important to control an experiment?
Controlling an experiment is important because it allows researchers to isolate and manipulate one variable at a time, ensuring that any changes observed can be attributed to the variable being studied. This helps to minimize confounding factors and increase the reliability of the results obtained. By controlling an experiment, researchers can establish cause-and-effect relationships between variables.
What is a double blind crossover study?
I want to know if a medication has the desired effect. I'm going to give half the subjects the 'live' med, and half will get a placebo. The subjects will not know which one they are getting. That's one level of "blind". Studies show that there is a measurable affect based on the fact that the person distributing the med's knows who is getting the med and who is getting the placebo. So I am going to package the med's and give them to the distributing nurse, and the nurse will not know who is getting the med and who is getting the placebo. That is "double blind" model.

Scientists use a placebo to check that the variable they are changing actually is responsible for the results they see. It is like a control experiment, allowing you to compare the trial with it to see if there is any effect. It also counteracts the "placebo effect". For example, this is when someone taking a drug calims they "feel better" despite the drug not actually having any effect. Therefore, by giving some test subjects a placebo and some the drug being tested and not telling them which is which, you can eliminate the placebo effect from the test.
