In many experiments, two groups are observed: an experimental group and a control group. ... In a laboratory setting, it is often possible to maintain good control of many things that might affect your results, including the variable factor. Outside of the lab, it's not possible to control things as well as in the lab, and statistical evaluation of experimental data becomes critically important. ... Some experiments involve detailed lab procedures, precise instrument...
