What is a manipulated and responding variable?

[purplewolf566]

A manipulated variable is the independent variable in an experiment. It's called “manipulated” because it's the one you can change. The controlled variable is the one that you keep constant. The responding variable or variables is what happens as a result of the experiment (i.e. it's the output variable).

A responding variable is something that “responds” to changes you make in an experiment. The changes in an experiment are made to the independent variable (also called the manipulated variable); the responses that happen as a result of those deliberate changes are the responding variables.

what are the manipulated variables and the responding variables on each graph? When we plot information on a graph the manipulated variable is always plotted on the X - axis and the responding variable is always plotted on the Y - axis. Independent variable is another name for manipulated variable. It is independently selected by the experimenter to be manipulated.

Beside this, what is the difference between manipulated variable and responding variable?

What is the difference between a manipulated variable and a responding variable in a controlled experiment? A manipulated variable is deliberately changed while a responding variable is what responds to the experiment. Hypotheses should be tested in experiments where only one variable is changed at a time.

What is manipulated in research?

Experimental manipulation describes the process by which researchers purposefully change, alter, or influence the independent variables (IVs), which are also called treatment variables or factors, in an experimental research design.
