Popis: A random sample of undergraduate students were interviewed to study (a) their attitudes about and reactions to social science experiments and (b) the effects such attitudes and reactions may have on the validity of experimental research. It was found that the majority of the respondents had rather definite reactions to experiments, most of them generally favorable. Although the models of subjects and experiments proposed by various writers in the field received some support, none of the models was sufficiently complex to account for the range of responses exhibited by the respondents.
