Question

Professor Nwamabi is conducting an experiment in which he is examining the effects of air conditioning on sleep habits. 100 participants are randomly assigned into two groups, one of which sleeps for a week in an air conditioned setting and of which sleeps in a room without air conditioning. After a week he has various physiological markers assessed to see if the groups are different. In this research, the use of air conditioning represents a(n) ________ variable.

Answer 1

In the research of Professor Nwamabi  the use of air conditioning represents independent variable.

Given 100 participants are randomly selected in a research in which effects of air conditioning on sleep habits is studied.

Dependent variable is the variable whose value is dependent on the other variables like increase in profit and production.

Independent variable is the variable whose value is not dependent on the other variables.

In the research of Professor Nwamabi in which he is examining the effects of air conditioning on sleep habits, use of air conditioning represents independent variable. In this study the effect is on sleep habits means the value of sleep habits will change due to use of air conditioning. It shows that the use of air conditioning is not depending on other variable in the research.

Hence the use of air conditioning represents the independent variable.
