To find an experimentâs dependent variable, you only need ask what the hypothesis is about. For example, an experiment testing the hypothesis âfertilizer A will increase the growth rate of sunflowersâ is primarily interested in the effect on different growth rates, making âgrowth rateâ the dependent variable.
