What was/were the primary conceptual dependent variable(s)? How was/were the DV(s) operationalized? (8 points: 4 points for concept, 4 points for operationalization)

Answer & Explanation:

What was/were the primary dependent variable(s)?

Hint: provide a concept, rather than a specific measure.

 The Primary Dependent Variable in the article was what came out from learning skills by the study participants (Kromann, Jensen, & Ringsted, 2009).

How was/were the DV(s) operationalized?

Hint: Provide a specific measure or something that the participants did to produce a score for each.

        The dependent variable was operationalized through assessment given to study participant at the end of two weeks upon course completion with a 25-item checklist scored on a scale of 0 - 5 (Kromann, Jensen, & Ringsted, 2009).
