When one variable causes change in another, we call the first
variable the ___________________ variable*.
The affected variable is called the _______________ variable*. -
Correct Answer ✅When one variable causes change in
another, we call the first variable the explanatory variable*.
The affected variable is called the response variable*.
In a randomized experiment, the researcher manipulates
values of the explanatory variable and measures the resulting
changes in the response variable. The different values of the
explanatory variable are called treatments. An experimental
unit is a single object or individual to be measured.
A two-way table, also known as a two-way frequency table or
contingency table, is used to show the relationship between
two ______________________variables ( C→C ); the rows show
the categories of one variable, and the columns show the
categories of the other variable. - Correct Answer
✅categorical variables ( C→C )
