Measured variable, control variable, treatment variable and moderating variable
In an experimental design comparing two groups in which one group gets one treatment and another group gets a second treatment, the experimental group is the group with the "different" treatment. The control is the "usual" treatment; the experimental group gets the "new" treatment. Of course, things get complicated with more complicated "experiments."
Helps students organize identify independent variable, dependent variable, and constants in an experimental design. This information is then used to write an if/then statement for a hypothesis.
Explanatory variable apex
The independent variable is the variable that the researcher manipulates or controls in an experimental design in order to observe its effect on the dependent variable.
The group that receives treatment in an experimental research study is known as the treatment group or experimental group. This group is exposed to the independent variable being studied to observe the effect it has on the dependent variable.
The effect on the dependent variable will be different in the experimental group than the control group, which is why you measure the dependant variable.
The variable setup in an experiment is called the experimental design. This design includes all the factors and conditions that are manipulated or controlled in the experiment to test the research hypothesis.

It's called a variable
In an experimental study, the group that has one variable changed is typically called the experimental group. This group receives the treatment or intervention being studied, while the control group remains unchanged to compare the effects of the treatment.
The experimental group contains the variable being studied. This group receives the treatment or manipulation of the variable to observe its effects.
A quasi-experimental design is a design that resembles and experimental design but does not have the key ingredient of random assignment. They involve selecting groups that are used to test a variable but with no random pre-selection process.
The part of an experiment that contains the variable being tested is called the experimental group. This group is the one where the treatment or manipulation is applied to observe its effects.
A group of experimental subjects that is not exposed to a chemical or treatment being investigated so that it can be compared with experimental groups that are exposed to the chemical or treatment. cw: An experimental control may be the control group. In general, the experimental control is something that allows you to say that the treatment effects on the experimental group are due to the treatments, rather than anything else.
