Community canteen services have the potential to boost the life satisfaction, dietary habits, and mental health of older individuals, while also enhancing their social networks. However, additional evidence is necessary to support this claim. To explore the effects of canteen services on mental well-being, we plan to conduct a survey. Specifically, we will administer questionnaires to both canteen beneficiaries and individuals who do not utilize such services, using the latter as a control group. Can this be considered an experimental design?

We appreciate your inquiry. Control groups are present in both experimental and quasi-experimental designs. It is important to note that the crucial element of an experimental design is the random assignment of participants. In your particular situation, it aligns with a quasi-experimental design.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
