Answer:
The amount of time spent playing video games.
Explanation:
When doing research, we usually come across two different types of variables. One is the independent variable and the other one is the dependant variable.
- The independent variable is the one that we, as researchers, can control and that has an effect on another variable.
- The dependant variable is the variable that we can't control and that is affected by the independent variable.
Therefore, we can control the independent variable but not the dependant variable. And the effect we will be observing will take place in the dependent variable.
In this example, the hypothesis is that the greater amount of time teenagers spend playing video games, the higher their grades in math. We can see that the hypothesis states that <u>the math grades will be AFFECTED by the amount of hours teenagers spend playing video games</u>. In other words, <u>the amount of time spent playing will have an </u><u>effect</u><u> on the grades.</u> Therefore, the independent variable is The amount of time spent playing video games.

Explanation:
The options for this question are missing. The options are:
A) self-report
B) systematic observation
C) sampling behavior with tasks
D) interview
In research, the term systematic observation refers to a process to get data by which t<u>he researcher makes observations of the subjects of the study in an objective way</u>, not considering the researcher own prejudices by collecting data without biases from the researcher (which would come from the interpretation of the observations).
In this example Irina watches 10 babies once a month from birth to 2 years of age and writes down the sounds they make and the words they use. We can see that <u>she is observing the babies in an objective and close way and by writing down the sounds and words she is actually taking an objective measure of language development</u>. Therefore this would be an example of systematic observation.
