A control variable is a factor that not of your primary concern but may influence your experiment result. So in data analysis, we usually hold it constant to rule out its effect on the development 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?
