    Answer: according to how the summary of the research should be, the variables are; "social media was used for recruiting is the explanatory variable, and college enrollment is the response variable".

    Explanation: Variables are determining conditions of a result. In this research, we have two variables, one is an effect and the other is an outcome. From the research paper title, we can see effect of recruiting through social media to determine the out come of college enrollment rate.

    In a research work, we study the effect and observe the outcome.

    The research will try to explain the effect of social media been used for recruiting, and then the response of college enrollment. That means if we increase or reduce recruitment through social media how will college enrollment respond. This makes using social media for recruiting to be the explanatory variables and college enrollment to become the response variables.
