Let’s say you design a study to test whether changes in room temperature affect math test scores.

Your independent variable is the temperature of the room. You vary the room temperature by making it cooler for one-third of the participants and warmer for the other one-third. The temperature keeps unchanged for the remaining one-third participants. Your dependent variable is math test scores collected before and after the intervention. You measure the math skills of all participants using a standardized test. Then you can use a regression equation:

Scoret=β∗Temt+α, to estimate the relationship between the temperature (independent variable) and the math scores (dependent variable).

The correlation test result I’m reading about indicates that the p-value is less than 0.001. Does that imply a relationship?

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
