Article: Best friends influence when teenagers have first drink.
Main discoveries: The research found out that adolescents who get their frist drink from a friend are more likely to drink sooner in life, which past studies show makes them more prone to abusing alcohol when the get older.
Methodology: The research did surveys to get to those conclusion he make surveys for more than 20,000 teenagers in different high schools, he ask them at what age was the first time they try alcohol and who was the one that told the to try it.
This topic is very important in society because many of the things that teenagers do are based on what their friends think or what they told them to do.This topic is important to me because us as teenagers don't have the maturity to choose the good and the bad and we just follow whatever our friends say just to be on the circle of society, and for me is a very interesting topic to talk about.
Step 1: first we need to set up some questions for our survey, and find out what will be our main people to do the survey to, and some interviews to get a close answer on what teenagers think.
Step 2 : we are going to create a background research to knw what can be other problems that are giving an influence to most of teenagers.
Step 3 : After we get done all of our surveys and interview we can start setting up all of our data and see what are the main reseasons that teenagers get influence by friends>
Step 4: then we after collecting all our data together now we will analyze our data and then make a conclusion about our result .Then we can share our results to everyone.
This research will take us approcimately 2 months and 1 week to get all the surveys done and the interviews.We are going to need audio and video recording for the interviews ,also for the surveys we will probably get a web page to make it easier for UDEM students to answer our survey.
I choose this topic mainly because i think its interesting tho know how can a person influence a lot in another peoples life, this research can show us the big problem that our society haves.
The methodology that we will us in this research for next semester will be quantitative methodology.Interviews and surveys will be good enough to complete our research.Quantitative methodology was chosen because is a complete way of getting a result and is more detailed about their behave and their beliefs.
