Cara Menentukan Variabel INDEPENDEN dan DEPENDEN Penelitian

Summary

In this video, the speaker explains the concepts of independent and dependent variables in research. Independent variables influence outcomes, while dependent variables are affected by these influences. The speaker provides practical examples, such as how 'knowledge' can influence 'behavior' and how 'warm compresses' can impact 'pain.' Additionally, the speaker demonstrates how to craft research titles correctly, ensuring clarity on which variables are independent and which are dependent. This guide is useful for anyone preparing research or academic papers. The video concludes with practical exercises and examples from existing research titles.

Takeaways

• 🎓 Understanding Independent and Dependent Variables: Independent variables are those that influence or cause a change, while dependent variables are the ones that are affected or measured.
• 🔍 Example of 'Relationship' Titles: For titles starting with 'relationship,' the variable before 'with' is the independent variable, and the one after 'with' is the dependent variable.
• 📚 Example Title: 'Relationship between Knowledge and Behavior': Here, knowledge is the independent variable and behavior is the dependent variable.
• 🧪 Example of 'Effect' Titles: For titles starting with 'effect,' the variable before 'on' is the independent variable, and the one after 'on' is the dependent variable.
• 🌿 Example Title: 'Effect of Warm Water Compress on Pain': Here, warm water compress is the independent variable and pain is the dependent variable.
• 💡 Practical Application: Open Word and use these guidelines to formulate your research title based on the structure of independent and dependent variables.
• 📊 Double Variables: If the title involves two independent variables, they should both come before the conjunction 'with' and the dependent variable should follow.
• 📝 Example Title: 'Relationship between Knowledge and Attitude with Behavior': Here, knowledge and attitude are independent variables and behavior is the dependent variable.
• 📖 Research Title Examples: Look up example titles on Google to practice identifying the independent and dependent variables.
• 🎯 Summary: To identify variables in a research title, look for keywords like 'with' and 'on,' which help distinguish between independent and dependent variables.

Q & A

What is an independent variable in research?

An independent variable, also known as a predictor or explanatory variable, is one that influences or affects the dependent variable. It is the variable that is manipulated or categorized to observe its effect on the dependent variable.

What is a dependent variable in research?

A dependent variable, also known as the outcome or response variable, is the one that is influenced or affected by the independent variable. It is the variable that is measured or observed to see the effect of the independent variable.

How can you identify the independent and dependent variables in a research title that uses 'relationship'?

In a research title that uses 'relationship', the independent variable is found before the word 'with' and the dependent variable is found after 'with'. For example, in the title 'The relationship between knowledge and behavior', 'knowledge' is the independent variable and 'behavior' is the dependent variable.

How can you identify the independent and dependent variables in a research title that uses 'effect'?

In a research title that uses 'effect', the independent variable is found before the word 'on' and the dependent variable is found after 'on'. For example, in the title 'The effect of warm water compress on pain', 'warm water compress' is the independent variable and 'pain' is the dependent variable.

What should you consider when creating a research title with multiple variables?

When creating a research title with multiple variables, clearly identify the independent and dependent variables, especially if there are multiple independent variables. For example, 'The relationship between knowledge and attitudes with behavior' indicates that 'knowledge' and 'attitudes' are independent variables and 'behavior' is the dependent variable.

How can you practice identifying independent and dependent variables?

You can practice identifying independent and dependent variables by examining existing research titles and breaking them down to see what is being measured and what is influencing those measurements. For example, you can use online resources to find titles and analyze them.

What is the significance of identifying the correct independent and dependent variables?

Identifying the correct independent and dependent variables is crucial for the accuracy of your research design, data collection, and analysis. It ensures that you are correctly measuring the effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable and can make valid conclusions.

How can using 'relationship' and 'effect' in research titles help clarify variable roles?

Using 'relationship' and 'effect' in research titles helps clarify which variables are being tested for influence and which are being measured for outcomes. 'Relationship' titles often indicate correlation studies, while 'effect' titles indicate causal studies.

What are some common keywords to look for in research titles to identify variables?

Common keywords to look for in research titles to identify variables include 'relationship', 'effect', 'impact', 'influence', 'association', and 'correlation'. These keywords help indicate the presence of independent and dependent variables.

Can there be multiple independent or dependent variables in a single study?

Yes, a study can have multiple independent or dependent variables. For instance, a study might examine how both 'knowledge' and 'attitudes' (independent variables) influence 'behavior' (dependent variable).
