Set Aroma
Is this observational study, experiment or matched pairs study? and why?
Can pleasant aromas help a student learn better? There is reason belive that the presence of a floral scent can improve a person’s learning ability in certain situations. To test this hypothesis, 22 people worked through a set of two pencil and paper mazes two times, once while wearing a floral-scented mask and once while wearing an unscented mask. testers measured the length of time it took subjects to complete each of the trials.
I would say experiment. Observational studies usually don’t set up the parameters. (Here you do or do not provide the aroma, in an observational study the aroma would just been present as a random factor). Most matched pairs studies would have found two sets of students otherwise identical and exposed one to the aroma. Here the same set is exposed one time and not the other. In this version you would conflate the effect of the aroma will the experience gained from solving the first maze set.
