Types of Variables in Quantitative Research

A variable that is being tested and measured

A variable that changes and controls the experiment (correct)

An intervening variable used to explain causal links between other variables

A constant variable that remains the same throughout the experiment

An independent variable that is manipulated by the researcher

A hypothetical variable used to explain causal links

A subset of extraneous variables that are unforeseen factors (correct)

A variable that remains constant throughout the experiment

Dependent variables explain causal links, while intervening variables are being tested.

Dependent variables control the experiment, while intervening variables change.

Intervening variables are manipulated by the researcher, while dependent variables are not.

Intervening variables cannot be observed, while dependent variables can be measured. (correct)
