Answer:

C.

Explanation:

It should be understood that a mixed design or mixed factorial design involves two or more independent variables, of which at least one is a within-subjects (repeated measures) factor and at least one is a between-groups factor. In the simplest case, there will be one between-groups factor and one within-subjects factor.
