Tiivistelmä	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 factorial experiment is an experimental design in which two or more independent variables (factors) are manipulated simultaneously, and every combination of their levels is tested. Introduced by Ronald Fisher in the 1920s–1930s, it is the standard approach whenever a researcher needs to detect not only the main effect of each factor but also whether the effect of one factor depends on the level of another — the interaction effect.
