Different types of variables in quantitative research:

1. Independent Variable: The variable that is manipulated or controlled by the researcher to


observe its effect on the dependent variable.

2. Dependent Variable: The variable that is measured or observed in response to changes in the
independent variable.

3. Controlled Variable: Variables that are kept constant throughout the experiment to ensure that
any changes in the dependent variable are due to the independent variable.

4. Extraneous Variable: Variables that are not intentionally studied but could affect the outcome
of the experiment if not controlled.

5. Confounding Variable: An extraneous variable that unintentionally affects both the


independent and dependent variables, potentially distorting the results.

6. Moderator Variable: A variable that influences the strength or direction of the relationship
between the independent and dependent variables.

7. Mediating Variable: A variable that explains the relationship between the independent and
dependent variables, acting as a bridge between them.
