It is much appreciated that you have provided this information. As a graduating senior about to attend graduate school, I felt humiliated by my inability to truly comprehend these concepts. This certainly helps.

I started creating videos because of that same feeling. I was thinking, “why can’t someone break down these concepts!”
That is the best explanation I have ever seen. Thank you.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 🚗 Understanding Variables in Psychology - Variables can change or vary within a study. - Identifying independent and dependent variables is essential. 01:03 🧪 Defining Variables and Independent Variable - Variables can include factors like mood, weather, age, and traffic. - The independent variable, in this case, is the color of the car. 03:04 🌈 Making the Independent Variable Independent - The independent variable must be isolated and separate from other variables. - All other variables must remain constant and unchanged. 05:11 📊 Understanding the Dependent Variable - The dependent variable is the data or results collected to see if the independent variable had an effect. - In this case, the dependent variable is the speed of the car. 07:03 📈 Graphing Variables - Independent variables are typically plotted on the x-axis, while dependent variables are on the y-axis in a graph. - Graphs help visualize and analyze the relationship between variables.

Do you think that there is casual relationship between color, which is categorical and speed. How do you say speed changes as color changes?

Great video!!! Thank you so much :) but I have a question. How to you hold a mood constant?
@PsychExplained
9 ай бұрын
Good question! This is why researchers rely on RANDOM ASSIGNMENT - each person in the study has an equal chance to be in the experimental group and control group. This ensures both groups are relatively the SAME. That is, you really can't control for mood, but if you use random assignment than the goal is you have equal number of people who are angry/sad/nervous/etc. in both groups. In a sense, you are cancelling out the moods. Does this make sense?
