Suppose we decided to build a regression model to investigate if there is a relationship between these two variables. What should we use as the variables in the analysis? person's height-dependent variable; dad's height-independent variable person's height-independent variable; dad's height dependent variable person's height, dad's height - both used as independent variables person's height, dad's height - both used as dependent variables
