Hope this helps. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2012-07-27 21:37:43 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- *Explanatory variable is also called "Independent variable" For a full explanation of the different nomenclature, see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependent_and_independent_varia... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2012-07-27 21:38:35 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Depending on the context, an independent variable is also known as a "predictor variable," "regressor," "controlled variable," "manipulated variable," "explanatory variable," "exposure variable," and/or "input variable."[4] A dependent variable is also known as a "response variable," "regressand," "measured variable," "observed variable," "responding variable," "explained variable," "outcome variable," "experimental variable," and/or "output variable."" |
