5. Does a variable being measured give data on the field of analysis that the researchers study?
Awareness and participation of grade 11 and most of the respondents are 18 years old and
12 students above which is 46% of the sample
Verbal bullying
Discussion Questions:
◉ What are the variables you found in the research report?
➜ The variables I have found in the research report are the awareness and participation of
grade 11 and 12 students, verbal bullying, female respondents, and academic and TVL tracks.
◉ What are the quantitative data under each variable?
➜ The quantitative data under each variable was that the participated respondent has a 46%
amount of 18 years old and above, so it means that 54% are 17 below. While in terms of
gender, females are the most respondents, which is 55% of the total sample, which means
basically 45% are males.
➜ The kinds of variables that I found in the research sample were nominal, independent, and
dependent.

1. What is a variable?
➜ Variables are the things that are being measured to give data on the field of analysis that the
researchers study.
➜ The discrete variables are being counted without a time frame while the continuous variable
is being measured in a given interval of time.
➜ There are five kinds of variables which are independent, dependent, intervening or meddling,
control, and confounding variable.
➜ In choosing my research topic, these variables will help me determine what factors I should
consider in creating research questions because they will define the relationship between each
factor that might influence it.
➜ The variables that I can use for my research topic would be independent and dependent
because they will tell the factors that would influence and be influenced by my research topic,
also the discrete variable will help me focus on the participants or the people that would be
included in my research.
