The dependent variable is the variable that is being measured or observed in an experiment. In this experiment, the amount of participation in group therapy sessions is the variable being measured, making it the dependent variable. The other options, such as whether the group was coed or the clients' attitudes toward therapy, may be independent variables or variables that are being manipulated in the experiment. The amount of mental health improvement may be another dependent variable in the study, but it is not mentioned as the question only asks about the dependent variable.
