The details of experimental design are critical for determining the success or failure of both field and laboratory experiments. Results

Question:

The details of experimental design are critical for determining the success or failure of both field and laboratory experiments. Results often depend on some small details. For instance, why did Jennifer Jarvis wait 1 year after establishing her laboratory colony of naked mole rats before attempting to quantify the behavior of the laboratory population? What might have been the consequence of beginning to quantify the behavior of the colony soon after it was established?
