A Grade 3 teacher would like to know the effect of attaching a happy face sticker on
every assignment that is marked 85% and above. Assignments that are marked
below 85% obviously do not receive any sticker. She announced to the class that at
the end of the term students who receive at least 15 stickers will receive a special
prize. At the end of the first month of school, she counts the number of assignments
that each student submitted with a sticker on it. She was particularly interested to
know whether those students receiving a sticker maintain their mark and those who
do not receive stickers improved their assignments in order to receive the sticker.
Based on the above study, identify the following:
a. independent variable (1.25 pts)
b. dependent variable (1.25 pts)
c. whether the dependent variable is discrete or continuous (1.25 pts)
d. the scale of measurement used to measure the dependent variable (1.25 pts

Solution

a. independent variable (1.25 pts)

assigment  that is marked 85% and above.

b. dependent variable (1.25 pts)

the effect of attaching a happy face sticker

c. whether the dependent variable is discrete or continuous (1.25 pts)

DISCRETE

d. the scale of measurement used to measure the dependent variable (1.25 pts
