The design of a single experiment, in which amount of reward and type of reward are varied. And in which the subjects are also randomly assigned to one of three "amount of reward" groups among two different administration scenarios in which in the first time they are rewarded with one type of reward and in the second time with the second type of reward is called 2x3 factorial design.

Explanation:

To understand this we have to analyze everything. First of all: A factor is a discrete variable that is employed to distinguish experimental units. Second, a factorial design is when an experiment is constituted by two or more factors or variables in the same study. These designs are classified by the number of levels of each variable and the number of variables. In this case, we have 2 variables distributed on 3 different levels.
