Question 1 pts
A stimulus or activity that is measured to examine the effect created by
the independent variable best describes a(n) _____ variable.
Independent
Dependent
Demographic
Extraneous
In quantitative research, the independent variable (intervention,
treatment, or experimental variable) is manipulated or varied by the
researcher to cause an effect on the dependent variable. The
dependent variable (response or outcome variable) is measured to
examine the effect created by the independent variable. An
independent variable is a stimulus or activity that is manipulated or
varied by the researcher to create an effect on the dependent
variable. A dependent variable is the response behavior or
outcome that the researcher wants to predict or explain.
Extraneous variables exist in all studies and can affect the
measurement of study variables and the relationships among
them. Extraneous variables are of primary concern in quantitative
studies, because they can obscure one’s understanding of the
relational or causal dynamics within the studies. Demographic
variables are attributes of the subjects that are measured during
the study and used to describe the sample.
