When conducting an experiment, there are two groups. One group is called the experimental group. This is the group that the treatment is being given too. The second group is called the control group. This group is not given the treatment and is used to compare the experimental group with.
An example would be: A new medicine for heartburn was being tested. The experimental group would be given the medicine. The control group would be given a sugar pill. When the treatment was done, the results of both groups would be compared and a decision would be made as to the medications effectiveness.
The group of participants chosen for an experiment is called the experimental group. This group is exposed to the intervention or treatment being studied to compare results with a control group that does not receive the intervention.
A double-blind experiment is one where both the participants and the researchers are unaware of who belongs to the experimental or control group until after the study is completed. This helps eliminate bias in the results by ensuring that neither the participants' nor researchers' expectations influence the outcome.
The group that received no treatment in an experiment is called the control group. It is used as a baseline for comparison to evaluate the effects of the treatment given to another group.
The Stanford prison experiment demonstrated in-group bias by showing how participants assigned the role of guards quickly identified with their group and exhibited prejudice and discrimination towards the "prisoner" group. This bias led to dehumanization and mistreatment of the prisoners, showcasing the power of group dynamics in influencing behavior.
Solomon Asch's experiment on group conformity demonstrated the powerful influence of group pressure on individual decision-making. Participants were swayed by the incorrect responses of others, even when it went against their own judgment. This highlighted the importance of social influence and the tendency to conform to group norms.
A valid experiment must include a control group for comparison, random assignment of participants to groups, manipulation of an independent variable, and measurement of a dependent variable to test the hypothesis.

you have to decipher out what exactly it is saying buut... participants that are exposed to the independent variable are in the experimental group and the participants who are treated the same way as the experimental group, except that they are not exposed to the independent variable, make up the control group... any...

Experimental group
That is the Control group.
