When we consider the relationship between two variables, there are three possibilities: 1  Both variables are categorical. 2  Both variables are quantitative. 3  One variable is categorical and the other is quantitative, for instance height and gender.
Independent and dependent variables are related to one another. The Independent part is what you, the experimenter, changes or enacts in order to do your experiment. The dependent variable is what changes when the independent variable changes - the dependent variable depends on the outcome of the independent variable.
