A confounding variable is an unmeasured third variable that influences, or “confounds,” the relationship between an independent and a dependent variable by suggesting the presence of a spurious correlation. Due to the presence of confounding variables in research, we should never assume that a co...

Any variable that you are not intentionally studying in your dissertation is an extraneous variable that could threaten the internal validity of your results [see the article: Internal validity]. In research that draws on a quantitative research design, especially experimental research designs (also ...
In estimating the influence of one variable on another one we must ensure that observed effect is not caused by factors other than these under investigation. These last, called confounders of analyzed variables, influencing simultaneously both analyzed quantities may generate spurious non existing in re...
