What would be the independent/dependent variables in a surve
What would be the independent/dependent variables in a survey questionnaire that would be issued to the general public and regards questions on personal preference when it comes to digital audio formats, like favorite types of files, type of media player/computer, etc. ?

Your question does not contain an independent/dependent variable; you should consider revising your question. Here is a link to more information about independent and dependent variables. https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... bles.shtml

Re: What would be the independent/dependent variables in a surve
Your variables depend on your hypothesis. What is your hypothesis?
For example, if you hypothesized that people's preferences in digital audio formats would depend on their age, then your independent variable would be the age of your subjects and the dependent variable would be their preferences.
I hope that helps!
