No. A manipulated variable is the same as an independent variable.
The covered jar was the manipulated variable and the responding variable was the result: No maggots.
The dependent variable is the observed one. If there is an experimental effect, then the changes you see in this variable depend on what you did to the manipulated variable.
the dependent variable
Manipulated variable
Manipulated variables are also known as independent variables. These are the variable which you change in an investigation. Plotted on the x axis.
TRUE!
The manipulated variable is your independent variable. This gets plotted along the x-axis on a graph, and your dependent variable gets plotted along the y axis. Example- think of a velocity-time graph (physics), or a dose-response graph (pharmacology). The variable you are able to control (like time or dose) is your manipulated variable, and the variable whose value is contingent on how you manipulate the first is your dependent variable (drug response etc.)
There is no answer to a manipulated variable because "a manipulated variable" is not a question!
No. A manipulated variable is the same as an independent variable.
operational definition of a manipulated variable
The manipulated/independent variable is a variable that changes and it is what the responding/dependent variable change because of the manipulated variable.
The dependent variable may change in response to the manipulated variable.
Normally, the dependent variable is plotted on the y-axis and the independent variable is plotted on the x-axis.
Normally, the dependent variable is plotted on the y-axis and the independent variable is plotted on the x-axis.
.... then your graph is inverted.
It means that a variable is manipulated!(:
