To determine the effects of a new "memory-enhancing" pill, a researcher randomly assigns 30 female teenagers to one of two conditions. In the first condition, each subject is given a pill and then told to try and memorize a list of 20 nonsense words. In the second condition, subjects are simply asked to try and memorize the word list. Results indicated that subjects who received the pill got an average of 12 items correct, whereas the no-pill group recalled only 6 items. In the experiment, the independent variable is the
A. sex of the subjects.
