Your hypothesis is that they change when the independent variable changes.

您的假设是当自量发生化时们会发生化。

The factors, which we have taken as given, influence our independent variables, but do not completely determine them.

我们视为给的因素会影响我们的自量，但不能完全们。

But you can also have variables that you believe are affected by changes in your independent variable; these are your dependent variables.

但是您也可以拥有您认为受自量化影响的量；这些是的因量。

And let's define it as the sum of 3 of these independent variables, each of them that have a standard normal distribution.

让我们将其义为 3 自量的总和，量都服从标准正态分布。

So we just showed you is that the variance of the difference of two independent random variables is equal to the sum of the variances.

所以我们刚刚向您展示了两独立随机量之差的方差等于方差之和。

So we have one independent variable – receiving the voucher or not – and a bunch of possible dependent variables, like earnings, education, and health outcomes.

所以我们有一自量——是否收到代金券——以及一堆可能的因量，比如收入、教育和健康结果。

In this case, geographic location is what we call the independent variable; it’s the variable that we think is affecting the change in how people describe themselves.

在这种情况下，地理位置就是我们所说的自量；我们认为这是影响人们自我描述方式化的量。

The division of the determinants of the economic system into the two groups of given factors and independent variables is, of course, quite arbitrary from any absolute standpoint.

将经济系统的因素分为给因素和自量两组，当然，从任何绝对的角度来看都是相当武断的。

Thus the traditional analysis is faulty because it has failed to isolate correctly the independent variables of the system. Saving and investment are the determinates of the system, not the determinants.

因此，传统分析是错误的，因为未能正确隔离系统的自量。储蓄和投资是系统的因素，而不是因素。

To begin with, it may be useful to make clear which elements in the economic system we usually take as given, which are the independent variables of our system and which are the dependent variables.

首先，弄清楚我们通常认为经济系统中的哪些要素是给的，哪些是我们系统的自量，哪些是因量可能是有用的。

Our independent variables are, in the first instance, the propensity to consume, the schedule of the marginal efficiency of capital and the rate of interest, though, as we have already seen, these are capable of further analysis.

我们的自量首先是消费倾向、资本边际效率表和利率，尽管正如我们已经看到的那样，这些可以进一步分析。
