Most of the Indian parents are worried about the obesity amongst their teenage children in the age group of 16 – 18 years of age, which is slowly increasing in recent years. These obese teenagers are likely to become overweight adults, unless and until healthier patterns of eating and exercise is practiced. A Researcher wanted to examine the effectiveness of an Omega enriched food on weight reduction. A sample of respondents is selected at random. These respondents are divided randomly in two groups, each having the same numbers. Members of both groups are weighed. For the next two weeks members on one group are given the Omega enriched food. The weights of members of both the groups are taken at the same time after the Omega enriched food is given to one of the groups. I. Identify the Research design and present it symbolically. II. Identify test units, dependent variable, independent variable, and extraneous variables III. Discuss the purpose of this experiment?
