The dependent variable is the variable that is measured and expected to change as a result of experimental research. The independent variable is the variable that is manipulated by the researcher to see if it has an effect on the dependent variable. Extraneous variables are any variables other than the independent variable that could potentially affect the dependent variable and therefore need to be controlled for in the research design. Experimental variable is not a commonly used term in research.
