Σύνοψη	A single-blind full factorial experiment systematically tests every combination of all factor levels while keeping participants unaware of their treatment assignment. This design allows simultaneous estimation of all main effects and all interaction effects between factors, with single-blind masking reducing participant-side biases such as demand characteristics and expectation effects — without requiring investigator blinding.	A full factorial experiment runs every possible combination of all chosen factor levels, making it the gold standard for simultaneously estimating main effects, two-way interactions, and higher-order interactions among multiple independent variables. Introduced through Ronald Fisher's foundational work on factorial designs in the 1920s and systematised by Box, Hunter, and Montgomery, it provides complete information about how factors act individually and in combination on an outcome.
