One of these interventions is the standard of comparison or control. The control may be a standard practice, a placebo ("sugar pill"), or no intervention at all.

To compare between “Within-subject" and “Between-subject" design

A within-subject design: Experiment that is designed to measure changes within the participant. 

A between-subject design: Experiment that is designed to measure changes between different subjects. 

Nuf said. Much easier to understand 

To define factors and variables

Repeated-Measures Factor. Repeated-Measures Variable. A within-subjects variable is an independent variable that is manipulated by testing each subject at each level of the variable. Compare with a between-subjects variable in which different groups of subjects are used for each level of the variable.Subject

Subject = What or who is being tested on

Variables = The independent variable 

Factor = Don't know yet 

Question

What is “factor” ? 

Factor is independent variable. 

What is “repeated-measures factor" ? 

It is possible to expose the research participants to different levels of the independent variables. 

Are “between-subject" and “within-subject" belong to factorial design? 

No. There are 2 themes: “factorial design” and “repeated measures design”. 

Factorial design refers to the research design that examines the combined or separate effect of two or more independent variables at once.  

Repeated measures design refers to the research design that exposes participants to all levels of the independent variables. In it, there are 2 kinds: “between-subject” design an “within-subject” design.
