Internal validity refers to whether the manipulation of the independent variable truly caused changes in the dependent variable, without the interference of any extraneous variables or confounding variables. In other words, it ensures that the observed effect is not due to any other factors that may influence the outcome. Therefore, controlling variables with potential to influence a dependent variable is a key aspect of internal validity.
