The threat to validity that is likely to occur in the scenario above is Selection Bias.

<h3>What is Selection Bias?</h3>

This occurs when a researcher has control and intentionally chooses those who are going to be researched, observed, or studied. To eliminate this bias, the scientist must ensure that the sample population is selected very randomly.

Other threats to validity are:

  • History
  • Maturation
  • Attrition
  • Social Interaction
  • Instrumentation
  • Testing
  • Regression to the mean, etc.

What type of study is being conducted when Land's End Home mails a catalog with a fluffy set of towels on the cover to one group
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The answer to the question: What type of study is being conducted when Lad´s End Home mails a catalog with a fluffy set of towels on the cover to one group of consumers and the same catalog with a cover graphic of a beautifully-made bed to another consumer group to test differences between the two groups, would be: Experimental study.

Explanation:

The reason for this being the answer comes from the purpose that the researchers have given to the study itself. By sending the same catalog to two groups, each catalogue with a specific set of characteristics, to measure their responses to them and contrast the responses, these researchers are experimenting and seeking the results of that experimentation. This is why the answer is experimental, and not any of the other types of study types.
