For the following experiment, indicate whether it was single-blind, double-blind, or not blinded at all. Explain your reasoning.
Does a “stop smoking” program work better if it costs more? Smokers responding to an advertisement offering to help them stop smoking were randomly offered a program costing $100 or the same program costing $250. The offer was made individually to each client by presenting a sealed envelope so that the clerk providing the offer wouldn’t know the offer’s details.
