The dependent variable in their experiment was the number of leaflets that were damaged. This was determined by counting the number of leaflets with visible damage from herbivorous insects. The presence of tramp ants and other ants were independent variables that were manipulated in the experiment, while the amount of fruit produced and the amount of nectar consumed were not measured or reported in the study.
