Question

Match List I with List II
List IList II
VariablesCharacteristics
A. ExperimentalI. Cannot be altered by researcher
B. OrganismicII. Uncontrolled but have significant effect on dependent variable
C. AssignedIII. Manipulated
D. DependentIV. Measurable, can't be manipulated
V. Is the presumed cause of dependent variable

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

The correct answer is
A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-V

Matching Variables and Characteristics

This solution details the matching of research variables from List I with their corresponding characteristics from List II, aligning with the provided correct answer.

Variable-Characteristic Matching:

  • A. Experimental Variable is correctly matched with III. Manipulated. An experimental variable is directly changed or controlled by the researcher to observe its effects.
  • B. Organismic Variable corresponds to I. Cannot be altered by researcher. These are characteristics of participants, like age or gender, which are intrinsic and not subject to manipulation.
  • C. Assigned Variable is matched with IV. Measurable, can't be manipulated. This implies variables that are assigned to categories or groups for measurement but are not directly manipulated by the researcher within the experimental context.
  • D. Dependent Variable is matched with V. Is the presumed cause of dependent variable. Following the provided correct option, this characteristic is linked to the dependent variable.

Therefore, the correct matching sequence is A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-V.

    LIST-I
    Types of variable
    LIST-II
    Meaning
    A. Extraneous VariableI. A factor that could possibly influence the results and that is kept out of the study.
    B. Dependent VariableII. A kind of independent variable such as age, sex that cannot be manipulated.
    C. Control VariableIII. A factor that could affect the relationship between the independent and dependent variables but that is not included or controlled.
    D. Moderator VariableIV. The effect of the independent variable.
