Dependant And Independent Variables. Designation of the dependent and independent variable involves unpacking the research problem in a way that identifies a general cause and effect and classifying these variables as either independent or dependent. The dependent variable is the possible outcome of the experiment. The independent variable x is some value we choose or manipulate to determine the value of the dependent variable. The dependent variable is dependent on the independent variable.
These variables are independent. A dependent variable is the one which we can test in a scientific experiment in order to get its values. The dependent variable is dependent on the independent variable. The variables should be outlined in the introduction of your paper and explained in more detail in the methods section. The independent variable in your experiment would be the brand of paper towel. An example of a dependent variable is depression symptoms which depends on the independent variable type of therapy.
For example if we want to explore whether high concentrations of vehicle exhaust impact incidence of asthma in children vehicle exhaust is the independent variable while asthma is the dependent variable.
If x and y are two variables in an algebraic equation and every value of x is linked with any other value of y then y value is said to be a function of x value known as an independent variable and y value is known as a dependent variable. Hence as the experimenter changes the independent variable we can now observe and record the change in the dependent variable. The dependent variable is the possible outcome of the experiment. A Dependent variable is what happens as a result of the independent variable. This is the relationship between dependent and independent variables. In analytical health research there are generally two types of variables.
