Research Assignment

I chose to participate in two surveys titled Coping, Attachment, & Long-term outcomes of childhood experiments and Employer Attitude.

In Coping, Attachment, & Long-term outcomes of childhood experiments, the hypothesis was trying to understand how coping and attachment effects long term psychological function from childhood experiences. A hypothesis is: “A prediction, stemming from a theory, stated in a way that allows to be tested”. The purpose of this survey is to hopefully help people deal with childhood experiences better. This is considered cognitive perspective, for the reason people are trying to understand how to help others perceive the world around them. In my opinion, this survey goes along with chapter eleven in the text book because parts of that chapter is specific to coping with childhood experiences.

        Participating in this survey I was assured that my name would not be linked with any of the data received from me. The only people that can see my data will be the researchers associated with this experiment. I was not offered any results by taking part in the survey. I was given a researcher’s name, credentials, and a way to contact her if I had any further questions.

        In the much shorter survey, Employer Attitude, the hypothesis was placing yourself in an employer’s position to understand how their attitudes through your own personal feelings based on an applicant’s qualifications and backgrounds. The topic of the survey was to understand an employer’s point of view for hiring practices.  This survey would go along with Chapter three from our text book. Chapter three deals with perception and understanding the world around us. I believe everyone deserves a second chance in life. You never know what a person has faced.

        In this survey, I read that no personal identifying data is stored. All the data that is received is password protected and encrypted for safety purposes of remaining anonymous. The author did not provide me with the results of the study, however, I was provided with the researchers name, credentials, and email address for any further questions based on this survey.

In theory, I can see why an employer may not hire a convicted felon even if they have a great amount of experience. People with major convictions such as robbery, theft, violence, drugs and arson are usually not deemed as trustworthy to a lot of employers. I realize some people would not make this type of survey accurate to a small number of our society. If a case study was done just for poverty I believe the results would be more a more forgiving society and to give people another chance in life.
