Dependent variable
1. In experimental research, the dependent variable is the variable presumed within the research hypothesis to depend on (be caused by) another variable (the independent variable); it is sometimes referred to as the outcome variable. 2. a variable that is hypothesized to be caused by, or depend on, another variable, the independent variable. e.g. in a hypothesized relationship between gender and income, income is a dependent variable in that it occurs after gender occurs and is thought to be determined or caused to some extent by the gender of a person.
