The study compared various cognitive variables, including attention, memory, and executive functions among individuals with different levels of physical fitness. The researchers wanted to investigate the relationship between physical fitness and cognitive performance.
Correlation
An experiment is called a controlled study because it involves manipulating variables under controlled conditions to isolate the effects of those variables on the outcome or results. By controlling other factors that could influence the results, researchers can more accurately determine the impact of the variables they are studying.
The statistical method you are referring to is known as factor analysis. Factor analysis is helpful in identifying underlying patterns or structures among a large number of variables by grouping them into a smaller number of factors. These factors help in simplifying the complexity of the data and understanding the relationships between variables.
The group of participants chosen for an experiment is called the experimental group. This group is exposed to the intervention or treatment being studied to compare results with a control group that does not receive the intervention.
No, an independent variable is one that is intentionally manipulated by the researcher to observe its effect on the dependent variable. A variable that changes outside of the participants' control would typically be considered an extraneous variable that could potentially influence the results of the study.
Independent Variables.
The factors which you change (vary) are called variables.
dichotomous variables
For instance, in an experiment on plants, some plants may be subjected to variables - different fertilisers, soil, temperature, daylight, diseases, etc. While other plants would be kept separate as a control. The control plants would not be subjected to any variables or experiments. The control plants would be used to compare the growth and the effects on the plants that were subjected to the variables.

An experiment in which all variables stay the same is called a "controlled experiment".
