Question: What's a variable?
Answer: A variable is an object, event, idea, feeling, time period, or any other type of category you are trying to measure. There are two types of variables-independent and dependent.
Question: What's an independent variable?
Answer: An independent variable is exactly what it sounds like. It is a variable that stands alone and isn't changed by the other variables you are trying to measure. For example, someone's age might be an independent variable. Other factors (such as what they eat, how much they go to school, how much television they watch) aren't going to change a person's age. In fact, when you are looking for some kind of relationship between variables you are trying to see if the independent variable causes some kind of change in the other variables, or dependent variables.
Question: What's a dependent variable?
Answer: Just like an independent variable, a dependent variable is exactly what it sounds like. It is something that depends on other factors. For example, a test score could be a dependent variable because it could change depending on several factors such as how much you studied, how much sleep you got the night before you took the test, or even how hungry you were when you took it. Usually when you are looking for a relationship between two things you are trying to find out what makes the dependent variable change the way it does.
Many people have trouble remembering which is the independent variable and which is the dependent variable. An easy way to remember is to insert the names of the two variables you are using in this sentence in they way that makes the most sense. Then you can figure out which is the independent variable and which is the dependent variable:
(Independent variable) causes a change in (Dependent Variable) and it isn't possible that (Dependent Variable) could cause a change in (Independent Variable).
For example:
(Time Spent Studying) causes a change in (Test Score) and it isn't possible that (Test Score) could cause a change in (Time Spent Studying).
We see that "Time Spent Studying" must be the independent variable and "Test Score" must be the dependent variable because the sentence doesn't make sense the other way around.
Marital status (independent variable) causes the degree of social integration (intervening variable) which affects suicide ( dependent variable).
The variable that you are measuring is the dependent variabledependant variable
The dependent variable is the variable that is measured in an experiment.
The variable you measure is called the dependant variable.A dependant variable is what you observe or measure to get your results.The dependent variable.
The independent variable in an experiment is the one that is manipulated in order to test a hypothesis. There will also be a control used in order to make sure that the variable is doing what it is supposed to.
The independent variable is the variable that is altered by the scientist, and the dependent variable's value is dependent on the value of the independent variable.
and independent variable is bigger than a dependent variable
The dependent variable is dependent on the independent variable, so when the independent variable changes, so does the dependent variable.
The independent variable of an experiment is the variable that you change, and the dependent variable is the result of the independent variable.
The Independent variable is the one you control. The dependent variable is controlled by the Independent Variable.
Math: Independent variable is what you change. Dependent variable is what you measure.
the dependent variable changes based on the independent variable
An independent variable is the variable you can change in an experiment. On a graph, it's on the X-axis. A dependent variable is the result of changing the independent variable. It is literally dependent on it. The dependent variable goes on the Y-axis.
is dependent on the independent variable
The manipulated/independent variable is a variable that changes and it is what the responding/dependent variable change because of the manipulated variable.
yes, because dependent variable is made by independent variable
Free from outside control means Independent . While dependent Is opposite.
