Preferred term

endogenous variables  

Definition(s)

  • Endogenous variables in causal statistical modeling are variables that are hypothesized to have one or more variables at least partially explaining them. Commonly referred to in econometrics and the structural equation modeling family of statistical techniques, endogenous variables may be effect variables that precede other endogenous variables; thus, although some consider endogenous variables to be dependent, such a definition is technically incorrect. [Source: Encyclopedia of Research Design; Endogenous Variables]
