Sammanfattning	A double-blind laboratory experiment is a controlled experimental design conducted in a laboratory setting in which neither the participants nor the researchers directly administering the treatment know which condition each participant has been assigned to. This dual blinding, combined with the high degree of environmental control characteristic of laboratory settings, minimizes both participant expectancy effects and experimenter bias, making it one of the most rigorous designs available for isolating causal relationships between independent and dependent variables.	A laboratory experiment is a research design in which the investigator systematically manipulates one or more independent variables under tightly controlled conditions, randomly assigns participants to conditions, and measures the effect on dependent variables. By maximizing internal control, the laboratory experiment is the gold standard for establishing cause-and-effect relationships. It is the backbone of experimental psychology, cognitive science, pharmacology, and many social sciences.
