What are variables and uncontrolled variables?

A Controlled Variable is a variable that will stay the same. An Uncontrolled Variable is a variable that stays at random during testing.


What are the three essential characteristics of experimentation?

The three essential characteristics of experimentation are manipulation, control, and randomization. Manipulation involves deliberately changing one or more variables to observe the effect on a dependent variable. Control refers to the ability to eliminate or account for extraneous factors that could influence the results, ensuring that the observed effects are due to the manipulated variables. Randomization helps to ensure that participants are assigned to different conditions in a way that minimizes bias, enhancing the reliability and generalizability of the findings.

How can you eliminate confounding variables in your experiment?

To eliminate confounding variables, or variables that were not controlled and damaged the validity of the experiment by affecting the dependent and independent variable, the experimenter should plan ahead. They should run many checks before actually running an experiment.


Why do you need a controlled experiment?

In order to conclusively prove or disprove something. i.e an uncontrolled experiment will have so many variables that nothing can be conclusively proven from it, since it could be argued that the outcome could have been caused by any of the uncontrolled variables. Whereas by controlling some of the variables, the ability to prove that one variable links to a certain outcome is easier to establish.


What variables did you have to control in order to get a valid result?

We controlled the independent variable (the variable we manipulated) to observe its effect on the dependent variable (the variable we measured). We also controlled for any potential confounding variables that could influence the results. Additionally, we ensured consistency in experimental conditions to eliminate any extraneous variables that could impact the outcome.
