Your study has the advantage of taking place in a real-world setting.

Your dependent variable has two operational definitions.

Explanation:

The dependent variable is the evaluated participant in such an experiment. For example, the dependent variable would have been testing scores of the participant, because that was what is calculated, for a study of how tutoring impacts test scores.

One way of identifying the variable dependent is to note that it depends on the variable relying on it. When scientists adjust the independent variable, they then calculate the possible changes in the dependent variable.

Independent variables in the social sciences are usually considered as the cause and dependent variables are often seen as the consequence.
