Blog #3- Sociological Research and You!


1) After listening to each group's presentation of their sociological research, I think Jennifer’s, Michelle’s and Anthony’s research is the most interesting, effective, measureable, and significant. I think this because their topic is can be debatable. Many people have different opinions about when to tell someone that they are adopted, when Santa/Tooth Fairy is fake. I thought that the way their measured their information was correct also because of the way they had an open ended survey. That way they can get better more varied and detailed answers. I think the most difficult one to measure or understand was Marcia and Karina’s. I though the idea was very interesting and clever however I think it is very hard to find out the truth behind the concept of fear from just answering a few questions on a survey.

2) I am a very outgoing person; however many people think I am shy. I do not like to say much upon meeting someone for the first time but then when I get to know them I begin to open up more. I am also a very happy and positive person who looks on the bright side of things for 99.9% of the time. My personality defines or affects me because I am friends with people who are like me and have a similar personality. One of my weakness and strengths at the same time is that I do not quit until I get a job done. I am a perfectionist and sometimes I will be up till 2 doing everything to make it the best.  My weakness is that I am very impatient. Another strength is that I am very motivated and determined. I consider myself a very impatient, quiet and shy depending on the situation, talkative, calm, introverted person. My family and friends greatly influence my personality.

3) "With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts." Eleanor Roosevelt.
This quote influences and motivates me because if I had a bad day then the next day (the new day) I will give myself a chance to do be strong again and think about motivational and influential things.
