Answer:

In a between-subjects experiment, each participant is tested in only one condition. For example, a researcher with a sample of 100university students might assign half of them to write about a traumatic event and the other half write about a neutral event. Or a researcher with a sample of 60 people with severe agoraphobia (fear of open spaces) might assign 20 of them to receive each of three different treatments for that disorder. It is essential in a between-subjects experiment that the researcher assign participants to conditions so that the different groups are, on average, highly similar to each other. Those in a trauma condition and a neutral condition, for example, should include a similar proportion of men and women, and they should have similar average intelligence quotients (IQs), similar average levels of motivation, similar average numbers of health problems, and so on. This matching is a matter of controlling these extraneous participant variables across conditions so that they do not become confounding variables.

It just to add all the given data  and divided by number of data

average = Sum / number

2. Median

The median is the item of middle of data. The median solve the problem by taking the number in the middle of the sorted data. But in the Even numbers of data is there then there's  2 median. To get average data every time you need to sort the list first.

3. Mode

Mode is work just like voting , it given the data or number of choices is in majority. Its very simple to understand. It gives choice that the most people wanted.

4.Geometric mean

It help to find typical element when items are multiplied. It help to find Volume,Are, Inflation Rates etc

5. Harmonic Mean

Its very useful method but difficult to visualize.

Average rates = Total output / total input
