A researcher wanted to examine whether or not an individual's self-reports of violence was influenced by the number of friends they reported that were violent. Indicate the dependent and independent variables. Then provide a hypothesis on the relationship between these two variables.

What will be an ideal response?


The individual's self-reports of violence is the dependent variable and the number of friends they reported that were violent is the independent variable. As the number of friends that were violent goes up, an individual's self-reports of violence will go up too.
