the dependent varible
A statistical technique used to eliminate variance in dependent variables caused by extraneous sources. In evaluation research, statistical controls are often used to control for possible variation due to selection bias by adjusting data for program and control group on relevant characteristics.
Any variable can be the independent variable. It depends partly on what the dependent variable is, partly on the relationship you are examining. For example, if looking at age and length of children's feet, foot length would be considered the dependent variable. But if looking at foot length and shoe size, then foot length would be the independent variable.
Positive controls : an experimental treatment that will give the desired result Negative controls: An experimental treatment that will NOT give the dersired result.

the dependent varible
The independent variable is the one which the researcher controls and manipulates. On a graph this is the 'x' axis.
the treatment that the researcher controls directly.
the fitest survive
Natural selection is a process in nature where individuals with advantageous traits for survival and reproduction are more likely to pass on their genes to future generations. It is not controlled by any single entity, but rather operates through environmental pressures and random genetic mutations.
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.
According to psychologists, the behaviorist perspective is the belief that people learn from environment because their environment controls their actions. For example, individuals who are in a good environment will behave positively than individuals who are in a negative environment.
The manipulated variable is the variable that the researcher deliberately changes or controls in an experiment to see how it affects the dependent variable.

Physical Controls
Physical Controls
There are three basic categories of controls. Physical controls may take the form of barriers and guards or signs to warn individuals and units that a hazard exists.
