The variable which is manipulated by the researcher
Real World Example
Imagine you're trying to perfect your morning coffee routine to optimize your energy levels throughout the day. In this scenario, the amount of coffee grounds you use is akin to the independent variable in an experiment, where you adjust it to see how it affects your alertness. Just like how you change the amount of coffee to observe its impact on your energy, a researcher manipulates the independent variable to see its effect on the outcome of the study.
