RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -An independent variable, sometimes called an experimental or predictor variable, is a variable that is being manipulated in an experiment in order to observe the effect on a dependent variable, sometimes called an outcome variable.

Detailed explanation-2: -A dependent variable, also called an outcome variable, is the result of the action of one or more independent variables.

Detailed explanation-3: -A dependent variable is the variable that is tested and measured in a scientific experiment. It is sometimes called the responding variable. The dependent variable gets its name from the fact that it depends on the independent variable.

Detailed explanation-4: -A dependent variable is the variable that changes as a result of the independent variable manipulation. It’s the outcome you’re interested in measuring, and it “depends” on your independent variable. In statistics, dependent variables are also called: Response variables (they respond to a change in another variable)
