Variable 
A factor or attribute that can vary or change in an experiment or study
Independent variable 
The variable that is manipulated or controlled by the researcher to observe its effect on the dependent variable
Dependent variable 
The variable that is measured or observed in response to changes in the independent variable
Sample 
A subset of the population selected for study, often chosen to represent the larger population
Population 
The entire group of individuals or objects that the researcher is interested in studying
Data 
Facts, figures, or information collected and analyzed in research
Hypothesis 
A testable statement or prediction about the relationship between variables, often based on existing knowledge or theories
Experiment 
A controlled procedure carried out to test a hypothesis and determine the effects of one or more variables
Control group
A group in an experiment that does not receive the experimental treatment and is used as a baseline for comparison
Randomization 
The process of randomly assigning participants or units to different experimental conditions to minimize bias and ensure fairness
Statistical analysis 
The process of analyzing and interpreting data using statistical methods to draw conclusions from the results
Significance 
The degree to which a result is likely to be due to the variables being studied rather than random chance
Validity 
The extent to which a research study accurately measures or predicts what it is intended to
Reliability 
The consistency and stability of research results over time and across different conditions or observers
Peer review 
The evaluation process in which experts in a field assess the quality, validity, and significance of research before it is published
