תקציר	A single-blind factorial experiment combines factorial design — simultaneously varying two or more independent factors across all their level combinations — with single-blinding, in which participants are unaware of which treatment condition they have been assigned to while researchers and administrators remain unmasked. This design enables efficient estimation of main effects and interactions while reducing participant-side response bias.	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.
