2. WHAT IS INDEPENDENT VARIABLE ?
An independent variable is a variable that is
manipulated to determine the value of
a dependent variable s. The dependent variable is
what is being measured in an experiment or
evaluated in a mathematical equation and the
independent variables are the inputs to that
measurement.
3. WHAT IS DEPENDENT VARIABLE ?
The dependent variable is the variable that
is being measured in an experiment. For
example, in a study looking at how tutoring
impacts test scores, the dependent variable
would be the participants' test scores, since
that is what is being measured.
