Best Answer

In a single blind study, the subject being studied does not know whether he is part of the experimental group or control group, but the researcher recording the results does know. In a double blind, neither the subject nor the observer knows to which group in the experiment the subject belongs.

Why might a double-blind study yield more reliable results than a single-blind study?

In single blind studies, the experimenter (or observer) is aware of who or what belongs to the control group and the experimental group.In double blind studies, the experimenter is not aware of who/what belongs to which group. This is to eliminate the subjective bias an experimenter may have.

Single blind experiment?

In a double-blind experiment, neither the researchers or the human test subjects know if they are receiving the tested medication or just a placebo (a harmless substance). This eliminates any bias by either the subject (who may psychologically influence his condition) or the experimenter (who may otherwise see effects that are not due to the treatment). While there are logistical and ethical questions that make double-blind experiments difficult, the ultimate aim is to definitively establish whether a drug or treatment actually works.

What type of experiment is it when only the subject does not know it they are receiving the real treatment of the placebo?

If the experimenters know but the subject does not, it's called a "single blind" study. If the placebo is randomized and neither the subject nor the experimenters know which is the placebo, it's called a "double blind" study.
