What are the independent Variable, Dependent variable, experimental group, and control group?

1.A group of college students were fiven a short course in speed- reading . the instructor was curious whether a monetary incentive would influence performance on a reading test taken at the end of the course. half the students were offered 5$ for obtaining a certain level of performance on the test, the other half were not given money .|||Independent Variable = money ($5)

Dependent Variable = reading speed/level

Experimental Group = the students who were offered $5

Control Group = the students who were not given money
