      Willer (sociology, U. of South Carolina) and Walker (sociology, U. of Arizona) introduce the logic, techniques, and procedures of sociological laboratory experimentation, covering both empirically and theoretically driven experiments. The former is discussed as formulated in reference to John Stuart Mill's canons of proofs and the statistical methods pioneered by Ronald A. Fisher. The latter is introduced through the presentations of critically analyzed example experiments to show how the logic of theory that drives experiments is identical across different sciences. They also discuss the experimenter-subject relationship and the relationship between idealized social systems in the laboratory and the more complex systems outside it.
