4. Dr. Copus is in charge of the cognition department at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. A new drug named Mem-Reen has become available that might be able to improve people's memories. Dr. Copus puts half of her existing patients on the drug for two weeks while giving the other half of her patients a placebo (a fake drug). She then gives both groups a memory test and compares the scores. Afterwards, Dr. Copus analyzes the scores to determine if the memory drug worked. Independent Variable: Dependent Variable: Experimental Group: Control Group: 3 constants:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Independent variable: Type of drug (Mem-Reen or placebo)

Dependent variable: memories

Experimental group: The group that was given Mem-Reen

Control group: The group that was given placebo

Constants: Food, hours of sleep, memory test procedures.

The independent variable is an input variable that produces effects on the dependent variable. As the variable is changed, it produces different effects on the dependent variable.

The dependent variable is the actual variable that is measured during an experiment. It is the main purpose of setting-up of an experiment.

The experimental group is also referred to as the treatment group while the control group is the group that does not receive treatment at all or they receive fake treatment/placebo.

Constants are unchanging variables included in experiments. They remain unchanged both in the treatment and the control group, otherwise, the outcome of the experiment will be unreliable.
