Answer:
An observational study of an association between two variables.
Explanation:
In the given scenario, it is an observational study of an association between two variables. The variables being :
- Explanatory variable (independant variable / predictor variable) may explain or influence changes in a response variable.
- Response variable (dependant variable) measures an outcome of a study.
Observational study observes individuals and records variables but doesn't attempt to influence the response (does not impose a treatment). It allows the researcher to directly observed the behavior of inteest rather than rely on the subject's self-descriptions (Survey) thus allowing the researcher to study the subject in its natural environment, thus removing the potentiallybased effect of the unnatural laboratory setting on the subject's performance.
