    What’s missing? VARIABLES Malene Ysses Ortiz, Zion-Grace Rosareal, Catherine Trespuentes Variables Is a measurable characteristic that varies. It may change from group to group, person to person or within one person over time. Experimental Variables Any property of person or thing that varies and is not fixed; factors affecting the result of the study. Experimental Variables An experimenter changes or varies one factor and observes or measures what happens as a result of manipulation. Types of Variables Independent Variable the factor that is varied or manipulated. the “assumed cause” of a problem. Independent Variable There can be only one independent variable in an experiment. This is the factor manipulated by the researcher, and it produces one or more results, known as dependent variables. Independent Variable Dependent Variable The factor that is measured or observed; the change that is brought about or is effected by the change in the independent variable. the “assumed effect” of another variable. Dependent Variable If a scientist conducts an experiment to test the theory that a vitamin could extend a person’s life-expectancy, then: Controlled Variable The factor that is kept constant all throughout the experiment. Intervening Variables Are abstract processes that are not directly observable but that link the independent and dependent variables. In language learning and teaching, they are usually inside the subject’s heads, including various language learning processes which the researcher cannot observe. For example, if the use of a particular teaching technique is the independent variable and the mastery of the objectives is the dependent variable, then the language learning processes used by the subjects are intervening variables. Moderator Variables Affect the relationship between the independent and dependent variables by modifying the effect the effect of the intervening variable(s). Typical moderator variables in TESL and language acquisition research (when they are not the major focus of the study) include the sex, age, culture or language proficiency of the subjects. Extraneous Variables are factors in the research environment which may have an effect on the dependent variable(s) but which are not controlled. Extraneous Variables Extraneous variables are dangerous. They may damage a study’s validity, making it possible to know whether the effect were caused by the independent and moderator variables or some extraneous factor. If they cannot be controlled, extraneous variables must at least be taken into consideration when interpreting results.

    INDEPENDENT
    VARIABLES
    Malene Ysses Ortiz, Zion-Grace Rosareal, Catherine Trespuentes
    Variables

    Is a measurable
    characteristic that
    varies. It may change
    from group to group,
    person to person or
    within one person over
    time.
    Experimental
    Variables
    Any property of person or thing
    that varies and is not fixed; factors
    affecting the result of the study.
    Experimental
    Variables
    An experimenter changes or
    varies one factor and observes or
    measures what happens as a
    result of manipulation.
    Types
    of
    Variabl
    es
    Independent
    Variable
    the factor that is varied or
    manipulated.

    the assumed cause of a


    problem.
    Independent
    Variable
    There can be only one
    independent variable in an
    experiment.

    This is the factor manipulated by


    the researcher, and it produces one
    or more results, known as
    dependent variables.
    Independent
    Variable
    If a scientist conducts an experiment to test the
    theory that a vitamin could extend a persons life-
    expectancy, then:

    The independent variable is the amount


    of vitamin that is given to the subjects
    within the experiment.This is controlled
    by the experimenting scientist.
    Dependent
    Variable
    The factor that is measured or
    observed; the change that is
    brought about or is effected by
    the change in the independent
    variable.

    the assumed effect of


    another variable.
    Dependent
    Variable
    If a scientist conducts an experiment to
    test the theory that a vitamin could extend a
    persons life-expectancy, then:

    The dependent variable, or the


    variable being affected by the
    independent variable, is the life span.
    Controlled
    Variable

    The factor that is kept


    constant all throughout
    the experiment.
    Controlled
    Variable

    Are not measured in a particular study. Must be held


    constant so they will not have biasing effect on the
    other variables.
    Interveni
    ng
    Variables

    Are abstract processes that


    are not directly observable but
    that link the independent and
    dependent variables.
    In language learning and teaching, they are
    usually inside the subjects heads, including
    various language learning processes which the
    researcher cannot observe.
    For example, if the use of a particular teaching technique
    is the independent variable and the mastery of the
    objectives is the dependent variable, then the language
    learning processes used by the subjects are intervening
    variables.
    Moderator
    Variables

    Affect the relationship between


    the independent and dependent
    variables by modifying the effect
    the effect of the intervening
    variable(s).
    Typical moderator variables in TESL and language
    acquisition research (when they are not the major
    focus of the study) include the sex, age, culture or
    language proficiency of the subjects.
    Extraneous
    Variables
    are factors in the research
    environment which may have
    an effect on the dependent
    variable(s) but which are not
    controlled.
    Extraneous
    Variables
    Extraneous variables are dangerous.
    They may damage a studys validity,
    making it possible to know whether the
    effect were caused by the independent
    and moderator variables or some
    extraneous factor.
    If they cannot be controlled,
    extraneous variables must at least
    be taken into consideration when
    interpreting results.

    YOU! :D
