| random variable | A variable that may assume a set of values, each with fixed probabilities or probability densities (its distribution), in such a way that the total probability assigned to the distribution is unity; the random variable may be discrete, continuous, or mixed discrete-continuous. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| mixed discrete-continuous random variable | <statistics> A random variable that may assume some values with probabilities and others with probability densities. For example, in a 35-year-old man with familial polyposis of the colon, the distribution of time until malignant disease occurs consists of a probability that he already has cancer (which would be assigned the waiting time 0), a probability density of developing it in the future and a probability that he will die of some other cause before he develops cancer.

| moderator variable | A variable that interacts by virtue of being antecedent or intermediate in the causal pathway. (05 Mar 2000) |
| common variable immunodeficiency | Heterogeneous group of immunodeficiency syndromes characterised by hypogammaglobulinaemia of most isotypes, variable B-cell defects, and the presence of recurrent bacterial infections. (12 Dec 1998) |
| condenser, variable-focus | <microscopy> Essentially an Abbe condenser in which the upper lens element is fixed and the lower movable. The lower lens may be used to focus the illumination between the elements so that it emerges from the stationary lens as a large diameter parallel bundle. The field of low-power objectives may thus be filled without removing the top element. at the opposite extreme it can be adjusted to have a numerical aperture as high as 1.3. See: illumination, critical. (05 Aug 1998) |
| continuous random variable | Continuous variable that may randomly assume any value in its domain but any particular value has no probability of occurring, only a probability density. (05 Mar 2000) |
| continuous variable | A variable that may take on any value in an interval or intervals (its domain). (05 Mar 2000) |
| dependent variable | In experiments, a variable that is influenced by or dependent upon changes in the independent variable; e.g., the amount of a written passage retained (dependent variable) as a function of the different numbers of minutes (independent variable) allowed to study the passage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| discrete random variable | A random variable that may assume a countable number of values, each with a probability strictly greater than zero. (05 Mar 2000) |
| discrete variable | A variable that may assume only a countable (usually finite) number of values. (05 Mar 2000) |
| immunoglobulin variable region | That region of the immunoglobulin (antibody) molecule that varies in its amino acid sequence and composition, confers the antigenic specificity, and is thought to comprise the binding site for the antigen. It is located at the n-terminus of the fab fragment of the immunoglobulin. It includes hypervariable and framework regions, vh family subgroups, and the complementarity-determining region. (12 Dec 1998) |
| intermediate variable | A variable in a causal pathway that causes variation in the dependent variable and is itself caused to vary by the independent variable. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intervening variable | An event, such as an attitude or emotion, inferred to occur within an organism between the stimulation and response in such a way as to influence or determine the response. (05 Mar 2000) |
| independent variable |
a variable the values of which can be manipulated, set, and changed without reference to any dependent variable. In instructional design the independent variables are typically those associated with program events, antecedent events, subsequent events, and arrangements.

| independent variable |
The factor/value altered by the experimenter during the scientific investigation. The changes made affect the value of the dependent variable. This quantity is plotted along the x-axis of a graph.
