A.
High external validity and low internal validity.

B.
High internal validity and low external validity.

C.
Low external validity and low internal validity.

High external validity and high internal validity.

1 answer

In a well-controlled laboratory environment, the typical outcomes regarding internal and external validity are as follows:

  • High internal validity: This means that the study can effectively demonstrate a cause-and-effect relationship due to the control of confounding variables.
  • Low external validity: This indicates that the findings of the study may not generalize well to real-world situations, as laboratory settings can differ significantly from real-world conditions.

Based on this reasoning, the correct answer is:

B. High internal validity and low external validity.
