Dependent variable A dependent variable is also known as a response variable , regressand , measured variable , responding variable , explained variable , outcome variable , experimental variable , and output variable .

A variable is extraneous only when it can be assumed (or shown) to influence the dependent variable.

Here the independent variable is the dose and the dependent variable is the frequency intensity of symptoms.

The dependent variable would be the growth in height or mass of the plant.

Statistics In a statistics experiment, the dependent variable is the event studied and expected to change whenever the independent variable is altered.

This does not mean, however, that the independent variable has no effect or that there is no relationship between dependent and independent variable.

Simulation In simulation, the dependent variable is changed in response to changes in the independent variables.

In the simple stochastic linear model formula_4 the term formula_5 is the i th value of the dependent variable and formula_6 is i th value of the independent variable.

The Tobit model is a statistical model proposed by James Tobin (1958) to describe the relationship between a non negative dependent variable formula_1 and an independent variable (or vector) formula_2.

The general linear model is a generalization of multiple linear regression model to the case of more than one dependent variable.

The basic model for linear regression is formula_2In the formula above we consider n observations of one dependent variable and p independent variables.

Effect of education on wealth In sociology, in measuring the effect of education on income or wealth, the dependent variable is level of income wealth and the independent variable is the education level of the individual.

When using MSSD as a comparative research approach, there is the independent and depend variable that get introduced, specifically the dependent variable being something that is common in all the research subjects and the independent variable which would be the differing characteristic between the research subjects.

Other variables A variable may be thought to alter the dependent or independent variables, but may not actually be the focus of the experiment.

Statistics synonyms Independent variable An independent variable is also known as a predictor variable , regressor , controlled variable , manipulated variable , explanatory variable , exposure variable (see reliability theory), risk factor (see medical statistics), feature (in machine learning and pattern recognition) or an input variable.

Independent variable(s) may be of these kinds continuous variable(s), binary dichotomous variable(s), nominal categorical variable(s), ordinal categorical variable(s), among others.

Such variables may be called a controlled variable or control variable or extraneous variable .
