Answer:
A) The emotional or neutral word list.
Explanation:
In research there are two types of variables:
- The independent variable refers to the variable that the researcher can manipulate and that will have an effect on the dependent variable.
- The dependent variable is the variable that is being affected by the independent variable and it's the one that the researcher cannot control.
In this example, Dr. Jeffries gives a lists of 20 words to two different groups, one list is very emotional in content and the other is a neutral list. Then he measures how many words each group can remember. We can see that <u>the variable that he can manipulate is the list they are given and the emotional content of each one </u> (which will have an effect on memory, according to him). Thus, the independent variable is the emotional or neutral word list.
