It means the one factor that a scientist changes during an experiment; also called independent variable.
Usually this is called the DEPENDENT VARIABLE (DV, aka outcome, criterion...). The scientist manipulates the independent variable and it is their HOPE that the dependent variable will change in response.
Manipulated Variable
Controlled
The condition that is deliberately changed using the scientific method in a controlled experiment is the independent variable. It can also be called the manipulated variable.
Independent variable. The dependent variable is the one that is affected by the independent variable, for example-y=2x+2This is the equation of a line. X is deliberately changed to find y hence - y is the dependent variable and x is the independent variable.

Interestingly, it is often called the manipulated variable, though it is also called the independent variable and sometimes other names.

Keeping all the relevant conditions in an experiment the same except manipulated variable is called
