1. Does the number of children affect the teaching performance of teachers in a class?

This research question has two variables both the dependent and independent variable. The variables are the students and the teachers. Students are the independent variables while the teachers are the independent variables. This is because the performance of the students depends on the students. The research question contains discrete variables where counts of individuals will be necessary. The number of students represents the discrete variable. The research question also contains continuous variables which are non-finite values. The performance of the teachers represents the continuous variables. The data moreover, represents binary variables where a yes/no outcome are expected.

2. How does diversity affect the effectiveness and productivity of teams and organizations?

This research question contains both the dependent and independent variable. Diversity represents the independent variable while teams and organizations reflect the dependent data. This is because it measures how organizational performance is affected by diversity. The data contains categorical variables that can be classified under continuous variables. The data represents measurement of continuous and non-finite values which are the effectiveness and productivity of teams and organizations. Diversity can also be regarded as a control variable since it is held constant throughout the experiment.

3. What are the impacts of immigrants to the economy of a country?

This research question also contains both the dependent and independent variable. Immigrants reflect the dependent variable while the economy of a country represents independent variable since its dependent on the rate of immigrants into the country. The impact on the economy can be measured as a discrete variable since data like income generation, levels of employment, or economic growth can be collected to measure the impact. This data can also be classified under the qualitative variables.

4. Should the government impose regulations on the games played such as momo during social media activity?

This research questions has both the dependent and independent variable. The government represents the independent variable that influences the outcome of the research while games played in social media reflect the independent variable since their operations is dependent on the regulations that will be imposed by the government. Moreover, the data has binary variable since the data provided in the research questions requires for a yes/no outcomes. The regulations imposed on the playing of games in social media will represent continuous variable.

5. Is personal data protected on social media?

This research question contains both dependent and independent variables. Data protection is the dependent variable in this question while social media is the independent variable. Social media does not change regardless whether personal data is protected or not. The research question has qualitative variables that can be classified under continuous variable. Measure of the data protection represents continuous data which is a non-finite value.
