Data involving two variables?
i need some real life examples for two variable data.
How do the test variables (independent variables) and outcome variables (dependent variables) in an experiment compare?
The test variable (independent variable) controls the outcome variable (dependent variable).
What have you learned about variables?
1) I learned that you can have as many variables as you want. 2) You can change the variables. 3) Variables is used in an experiment. 4) A variable is something that can be changed, such as a characteristic or value. Variables are generally used in Psychology experiments to determine if changes to one thing result in changes to another.
Why is it important to keep factors other than your independent variable as constants?
If you do not then it is harder to determine whether the changes in your dependent variable are due to differences in independent variables or other variables. However, sometimes it is not possible and good experimental design is required to permit these estimates.
What variable is affected by the independent variables?
The dependent variable.
How do researchers determine which of the variables are dependent or independent?
The variable that you can manipulate in the experiment is always the independent variable. The quantity that changes as a result of your manipulation is the dependent variable.
How are variables influenced by manipulation?
dependent variable
What controlling independent variables in a experiment?
independent variable can be controlled by manipulation or selection.
How does the manipulation of an independent variable during a scientific experiment allow a scientist to find a cause-and-effect relationship between variable?
The manipulation of an independent variable during a scientific experiment allows a scientist to find a cause and effect relationship between variables. This is because the manipulation changes the results and measurements.

Which variable in an experiment is the variable expected to be affected by the manipulation?
Dependent Variable
Which variable changes in response to the manipulation of another variable?
dependent variable
What are values in cells that can be changed to determine new values for formulas?
Assumptions or variable.
Why would a scientist need to identify variables?
Variables are the basis of a scientific experiment. When the scientist is carrying out his procedure, he is actually altering a variable, called the independent variable. Unless he just likes playing with chemicals, he is likely attempting to get a result, and he does this by using measurements of the dependent variable, which has changed because of the manipulation of the independent variable. Identifying the variables becomes very important when formulating more complicated studies, and becomes the bread and butter of psychological experiments.
Can a correlated study determine when there is lack of a relationship between two variables?
Sure. If you can observe that when variable A changed, variable B didn't change, and this happens repeatedly, that is a good indication that there is no relationship between those variables.
