social research assignment 2- will py $8

1.Name a sub field in the social sciences that holds some interest for you (e.g.,marriage and family, crime, aging, stratification, gender studies).

2.Name a topic that you associate with this subfield (e.g.,divorce, domestic violence, violent crime, medical care, the cycle of poverty, sharing of domestic work).

3.Form a hypothesis about the topic you’ve named that involves a guess about the relationship between an independent variable and a dependent variable (e.g.,and this is just an example— you have to come up with your own hypothesis “children whose parents have higher status occupations will begin their work lives as adults in higher status occupations than will children whose parents have low status occupations”).

4.What ,in your opinion, is the independent variable in your hypothesis (e.g.,“parents occupation”)?

5.What is the dependent variable of your hypothesis (e.g.,“child’s occupation”)?

6.Rewrite your hypothesis, this time in the form of a diagram like the one in Figure2.1, a diagram that connects the categories of your variables.
