Hence the answer is option c ; poverty and neighborhood conditions
Step-by-step explanation:
From the research, it is well known that both the dependent variable and independent variable will be taken into consideration before arriving at a conclusion.
A dependent variable is the variable that is been studied or measured i.e the results of a scientific research.
An independent variable is a variable that is been altered or controlled for and whose effects are compared to the results of the dependent variable, as such the results of a dependent variable is dependent on the alteration of the parameters of an independent variable.
From the question ; the dependent variable is sample of 707 individuals from a single community while the independent variable ; the number of hours each individual spent watching television during adolescence and early adulthood.
