Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of the variables that have been considered in the controlled and semi-controlled experiments for studying phenomena in visualization. As all controlled and semi-controlled experiments have explicitly defined independent variables, dependent variables, extraneous variables, and operational variables, a survey of these variables allow us to gain a broad prospect of a major aspect of the design space for empirical studies in visualization.
