What is an outcome variable?Experimental Research Designs:In an experimental research design, a researcher is able to control for certain variables and manipulate other variables to clearly determine cause and effect. For example, when testing a new blood pressure drug, researchers use a double ...

The assessment of disease activity in systemic sclerosis (SSc) is challenging owing to its heterogeneous manifestations across multiple organ systems, the variable rate of disease progression and regression, and the relative paucity of patients in early-phase therapeutic trials. Despite some recent succes...
If the variable improved the model fit and adequacy (based on the likelihood ratio criteria and the significance of the parameter), it was kept; otherwise, the variable was excluded. The model was checked for pairwise interaction between covariates. Potential confounding covariates were studied ...

One common type of data collected in EMA studies (and more broadly in psychological or behavioral studies) are ordinal responses. Generally speaking, an ordinal variable is one where the values of the variable can be rank-ordered, but the numerical distance between the values is not defined. ...
Recent recommendations promote the inclusion of people living with dementia beyond the role of ‘participant’ to involvement in all areas of the research process. This reflects shifts in dementia studies from ‘research on’ to ‘research with’ people
The current research unpacks the outcome dependency variable by separately examining effects of dependency (when outcome desirability is held constant) and effects of outcome desirability (when amount of dependency is held constant). Using research methods adapted from those used in the attitudes domain...
An alternative strategy could be to use the actual time spent before completing the exposure task as a continuous variable in the respective analyses. Future studies investigating the prognostic value of fear conditioning measures on exposure therapy processes and outcome should be pre-registered. The ...
