Answer:
1) The possible outcomes 2) Quantitative 3) The explanation to those outcome 4) Qualitative
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The response variable is a measurable variable, i.e. also called the dependent variable. In the study, they will represent the possible outcome.
E.g.
Suppose the study "Practicing enhances technique", the amount of hours will be the response variable.
2) <em>Is the response variable qualitative or quantitative? </em>Since it is measured, it's a quantitative.
In our example, our response variable would be hours, how many hours is necessary to display some enhancement?
3) <em>What is the explanatory variable? </em>
The explanatory ones, or also independent variables offer explanations to the results the response variables have shown.
In our example, the level of training (low, mid, hard) would be the explanatory one.
4) <em>Is the explanatory variable qualitative or quantitative?</em>
In our example, the explanatory response or independent one is qualitative since to classify the training as low, middle or harder is to classify them as categorical then it's qualitative.
