Question
In a study to improve patient medication adherence, one group of patients with HIV was given a pamphlet on the importance of adherence and another group viewed a short video followed by a discussion led by Community Health Worker. Both groups later reported on their medication adherence by phone, computer or mobile app. What is the dependent variable in this study? The type of professional having contact with the patient (nurse or community health worker) medication adherence after reading the pamphlet or watching the video The type of patient education (pamphlet or video with discussion) Device used to collect adherence information (phone, computer or mobile app)
Solution
The dependent variable in this study is the "medication adherence after reading the pamphlet or watching the video". This is because the dependent variable is the outcome that the researchers are measuring - in this case, whether or not the patients adhered to their medication regimen after receiving education via a pamphlet or a video with discussion. The other options listed are either independent variables (factors that might influence the outcome) or methods of data collection, not the outcome itself.
