Participants groups studies by who or what was actually tested. Wikipedia notes that an experiment can be as simple as "tasting a range of chocolates to find a favorite," a reminder that participants in a study can be as ordinary as a single willing taster. This grouping shows which studies drew on a similar kind of subject.
