CONTROL VARIABLES: A REVIEW AND PROPOSED GUIDELINES
Using control variables is a common practice in business and social science research (Becker et. al., 2016; York, 2018; Shiau et al., 2024), particularly when a study ventures into a cross ...
The selection, use, and reporting of control variables in international
The literature sometimes refers to such variables as covariates, confounding variables, nuisance variables, control variables or simply controls (Atinc, Simmering, & Kroll, 2012; Breaugh, 2008). Researchers need to account for these variables either through experimental design (before the data gathering) or through statistical analysis (after ...
Mastering the Use of Control Variables: the Hierarchical Iterative
There has been growing criticism of the established practice of automatically including control variables into analyses, especially with survey studies. Several authors have explained the pitfalls of improper use and have provided some best practice advice. I build upon this foundation in suggesting a programmatic approach to the use of control variables that can provide evidence to support or ...
A Critical Review and Best‐Practice Recommendations for Control
The use of control variables plays a central role in organizational research due to practical difficulties associated with the implementation of experimental and quasi-experimental designs. As such, we conducted an in-depth review and content analysis of what variables, and why such variables are controlled for, in 10 of the most popular ...
PDF A Critical Review and Best‐Practice Recommendations for Control
Our study builds upon the pioneering work conducted to date as each contains limitations that point to the need to gain a deeper understanding of control variable usage. For example, Becker (2005) analyzed only 60 studies, and Carlson and Wu (2012) analyzed studies from only a single year. Atinc et al. (2012) included studies from a longer ...
Control variable use and reporting in operations management: a
An extensive systematic literature review and content analysis is conducted on literature spanning 2010-2020. Control variable analyses are conducted and organized into interdisciplinary domains and DVs, providing researchers with insights in use of specific control variables from a micro-level perspective. Next, we identify strengths and ...
On the Nuisance of Control Variables in Causal Regression Analysis
Drawing substantive conclusions from control variable estimates is common, however. Authors frequently make use of formulations such as "control variables have expected signs" or "it is worth noting the coefficients 2 of our control variables". Below, we present the results of a literature review of papers published in Organization Science and Strategic Management Journal between 2015 ...

Uses and abuses of statistical control variables: Ruling out or
The purification role of control variables. Control variables can strengthen causal arguments by ruling out alternative explanations, since they can purify the relationship between independent and dependent variables. Without relevant control variables, researchers worry that their findings are subject to omitted variable bias.
The Illusion of Statistical Control: Control Variable Practice in
The authors extend the growing literature on CV practice by examining the ambiguity of researchers' stated purposes for using statistical control that makes it difficult to determine whether common CV practice accomplishes any of these intents effectively.

However, there appears to have been no previous review of the use of variable control charts in the context of health care. The main objective of this literature review is to examine where and how variable control charts have contributed to QI in healthcare, including their objectives, outcomes, limitations, and benefits, for both management ...
Control Variables in Management Research
The use of control variables to improve inferences about statistical relationships in data is ubiquitous in management research. In both the micro- and macro-subfields of management, control variables are included to remove confounding variance and provide researchers with an enhanced ability to interpret findings.
Control Variables
A control variable is anything that is held constant or limited in a research study. It's a variable that is not of interest to the study's objectives, but is controlled because it could influence the outcomes. Variables may be controlled directly by holding them constant throughout a study (e.g., by controlling the room temperature in an ...
Control Variables in Leadership Research: A Qualitative and
Statistical control of extraneous (i.e., third) variables is a common analytic tool among leadership researchers. While such a strategy is typically assumed to prove beneficial, it can actually introduce various complications that are underestimated or even ignored.
Choosing the Right Control Variables for Your Research
Control variables act as a shield against confounding factors—variables that might distort the observed relationship between the independent and dependent variables. Identifying potential confounding factors requires an understanding of the subject and a thorough literature review.

The control variables show a proper relationship, as per the literature. There is a positive relationship between R&D intensity and the dependent variables; leverage negatively affects ROA, ROC, and ROCE, implying that borrowing negatively affects companies' financial performance.

What Are Control Variables? Definition, Uses & Examples
A control variable is an experimental element which is constant or limited throughout the course of the research investigation. More often, the control variables may not have a direct interest in the aim and objectives of the study, but it tends to have a significant influence on the resulting outcome of the research.

How to identify relevant variables from a literature review?
Variables of any study are of four main types. Figure 1: Identifying relevant variables in a research. A dependent variable is a variable that is dependent on the value of another variable. So if anything in the first variable changes then the dependent variable changes too. 'Weight' is often dependent on the 'age' of an individual.
