Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A variable is a concept, idea, or attribute that is captured and defined within a research study. Variables vary from subject to subject, as with height and weight. Researchers attempt to control the variables, statistically account for them, or explain them in relation to what is being studied. Variables are not determined through statistics, nor do they test for correlations.
