Dr. Wickersham wants to examine how light affects participants' performance on a counting task. So she has two groups, one that

works under dim light and one that works under bright lights. She finds that those in the dim-light condition perform better. However, one of her research assistants admits that he gave those in the dim-light condition extra time to complete the task. Now Dr. Wickersham is not sure whether those in the dim-light condition did better because of the lighting or because of the extra time they received. The extra time on the test is an example of a(n) _____ variable.

Which is one way an individual citizen can influence the government?<br> Please help now!!!
Nady [450]
Well it depends on the age of the citizen. Folks over the age of 18 can influence the government by simply voting. But, everyone can influence the government. For example, a group or band of High School students could have a protest against how Trump treats women. You could also go to the official website for your senate, representative and even your president. That can simply influence the government.
