What is a dependent and independent variable?
It depends on what you are looking at. If you want to look at changes in variable Y when a variable X is changed, then X is the independent variable and Y is the dependent. But if you want to look at changes in X which accompany changes in Y, then Y is the independent variable and X is the dependent.
What is a dependent variable independent variable and a control group?
The independent variable is the thing you change, the dependent variable is the variable that changes because of the independent variable, it could also be referred to as the effect, and the control group is the constant, the thing that stays the same and the variable that you compare your results to.
What is is an independent variable?
An independent variable is the variable that the scientist changes, and the dependent variables are the variables that the scientist doesn't control. So that would mean that the independent variable is typically the variable being manipulated or changed and the dependent variable is the observed result of the independent variable being manipulated. The independent variable in a science experiment is the variable that you change on purpose. The independent variable is the variable that scientists manipulate in an experiment in order to determine its effect on a dependent variable. For example, if you wanted to see what affected frog deformities, you would set up an experiment where you would have frogs placed in the same environments as each other, except for one variable (independent) that is different. Let's say the control group gets exposed to all the same food, temperature, length of daylight, population density, etc., as the experimental group. The experimental group has the amount of UV exposure varied. The UV exposure (independent variable) would be used to determine its effects on frog deformities (dependent variable).
What is the manipulating variable the dependent variable or the independent variable?
The independent variable.
What is the diffrence between dependent variable and independent variable?
the dependent variable changes with the independent variable. the independent variable only changes when changed by the experimenter. Time is usually an independent variable.
What is the term for a group of subjects that receives all variables except for the independent variable in an experiment?
control group

Can a independent variable be changed in a group?
can a independent variable be changed in a group
A group which receives the variable in an experiment?
experimental group

The independent variable is the thing you change, the dependent variable is the variable that changes because of the independent variable, it could also be referred to as the effect, and the control group is the constant, the thing that stays the same and the variable that you compare your results to.
Does the control group get the independent variable?
No it does not
Which group is not subjected to the independent variable?
The Control(Controlled Variable)
In a controlled experiment what group is the group that has one variable changed?
I believe the what your referring to is the independent variable (changed). This is chosen and it is the relationship between the change in the independent variable which will cause a change in the dependent variable.
What is a treatment group in group work practice?
Independent variable
What does a control group have to do with the independent variable?
the answer to that question is the control group has nothing to do with the independent variable because a control group is some thing in your experiment that has not changed through out your experiment. And a independent variable is some thing in your experiment that you change through your experiment(s)
How does a psychologist use an independent variable in an experiment?
you have to decipher out what exactly it is saying buut... participants that are exposed to the independent variable are in the experimental group and the participants who are treated the same way as the experimental group, except that they are not exposed to the independent variable, make up the control group... any...
