Write 1 to 2 paragraphs for each
1. Describe the people you would collect data from. Where would you find them? Who would they be? Do you need to find people within certain groups? What are some criteria that would be helpful in selecting your people? Would you have any comparison groups? Also think about whether you would collect data at one time or more than one time over the course of a month, a year, etc. Explain why. Also explain how you will make sure that groups who have been excluded from research before will intentionally be included in an ethical manner (i.e., non-English speaking immigrants)?.
2. Think about what questions you would ask the people in your study. i.e., if you are interested in depression – what kinds of questions would you ask? Would you look for instruments or tools that had already been used or would you make up your own questions. Would you use mainly closed ended scaled or yes/no questions or open ended questions or some combination of both. Provide a couple of examples of questions you might ask. Briefly discuss what your reasoning is. As you describe your reasoning and examples of questions, please consider and discuss how you will make your questions inclusive and avoid bias or discriminatory language.
