How we select participants (random sampling) will determine the Population to which we may generalize our research findings. The procedure that we use for assigning participants to different treatment conditions (random assignment) will determine whether bias exists in our treatment groups (Are the groups equal on all knownand unknown factors?). We address random sampling in thischapter; we will address random assignmentlater inthe we do a poor job at the sampling stage of the research process, the integrity of the entire project is at risk.
