4. Variables (R11) 9/6 What is a variable?
2) What are the three types of variables?
3) How can you tell the difference between variables?
A variable is something that changes
2) Independent (IV) – I CHANGE
Dependent (DV) – changes because of the IV
Control (constant)- doesn’t change. You keep this the same so you only are changing 1 thing (IV)
3) The effect of IV on DV
I change the IV to do my experiment.
The DV is kind of like my results.
Ex) The effect of soda brand on taste preference.
SODA brand- IV, I CHANGE
Taste preference – DV, depends on brand of soda
