The correct option is B. The students knew whether or not music was playing while they were taking the exam
Given,
The class was split into two groups.
The first group took the midterm exam while background music was playing, and the second group took the exam without any background music.
In a blind experiment, any information that might affect the subjects is kept secret until the experiment is over. The pupils in this instance are aware of their group membership.
In order to answer this question, an experiment is carried out to see how music affects learning. One group of students studies while background music is playing, while the other group does not.
However, because of the background music playing here, the pupils are aware of which group they belong to. The experiment's outcomes are impacted by this.
Therefore the correct option is B. The students knew whether or not music was playing while they were taking the exam.
