True Experimental Design

Identify how prison officials could use a true experimental design if they wanted to test the impact of a new rehabilitation program designed to be administered to inmates in the four weeks leading up to their release. Be sure to identify the elements of a true experiment and specifically how the impact of the program would be tested.

Your paper must meet the following requirements:
