En este artículo se revisa el manejo del concepto de las variables en la investigación empírica en Economía. Se incorporan ideas desde otras áreas cuantitativas, y se ordenan en un marco conceptual. Se presenta una taxonomía de las variables y se discuten aspectos metodológicos que se derivan de ella. Consideramos que el reflexionar sobre la naturaleza de las variables desde el planteamiento de los objetivos de la investigación, y antes de vincularlas con el trabajo empírico, es una tarea que incluso debe ser parte de la formulación misma de teorías, hipótesis o ideas involucradas en el trabajo empírico económico. Abstract This article reviews the treatment of the concept of variables in empirical research in economics. It incorporates ideas from other quantitative areas, and are arranged in a conceptual framework. We present a taxonomy of the variables and discusses methodological issues that arise from it. We believe that the reflection on the nature of the variables since the definition of the study objectives, and ahead of linking them with the empirical work, is a task that even should be part of the formulation of theories, hypothesis or ideas involved in the empirical economic research.
