Intervening Variable

That factor which theoretically affects the observed phenomenon but cannot be seen, measured or manipulated because they usually have to do with an individuals feelings e.g. fatigue, boredom, excitement. Their effects are inferred from the effects of the independent variable.

Moderating Variable

In a relationship, there is at least one independent variable and dependent variable. It is normally hypothesized that in some way the independent variable causes the dependent variable to occur. A moderating variable is a second independent variable that has been selected for study in order to determine if it affects or modifies the basic relationship between the primary independent variable and the dependent variable.
