Question

Column titles in a table should describe which of the following?

• A. The independent variable
• B. The dependent variable
• C. The covariate variable
• D. The grouping variable

Answer 1

The correct option is A

The independent variable

Explanation for the correct option:

A typical data table is a matrix of rows and columns, each of which should have an appropriate heading that gives specific information about the content of the row or the column.

Each column has a heading in order to identify what data are listed below in a vertical arrangement.

So, column titles in a table should describe the independent variable.

Hence, the correct option is $\left(A\right)$.
