Transcript: Background Literature Presented by PERSON for COMPANY TOPIC 1 Article 1 Brief Summary The goal of this study was to look at the relationship between socioeconomic status and risky behaviors for on-going disease in American adolescents. Data was collected through the Youth Risk Behavior Survey and 1992 National Health Interview Survey. The participants were 6321 adolescents ranging in ages 12-17. Researchers found that risky behaviors for on-going disease are 1. common but 2. inversely related to socioeconomic status. SUBTOPIC 1 study seeks to understand the relationship between socioeconomic status and use of substances. This piece of literature supports the hypothesis that socioeconomic status influences risky behaviors one of which could be drug usage. How it Applies to My Study Article 2 topic 2 The goal of this study was to look at the effects, both together and separately, of family structure, race, and poverty on the health of people under 20 years of age in the United States during two distinct time periods, 1978-1980 and 1989-1991. A multivariate regression was used to analyze data collected by a National Health Interview Survey. Those who grew up in a two-parent family, white, in a family above the poverty line, or any combination there f tended to be in a more healthy condition. Researchers also found that poverty had the strongest effect on children during both time periods. Researchers concluded that race and the structure of the family explain the relationship between the health of children and them living below 150% of the poverty index. Continued TITLE This article specifically talks about how socioeconomic factors such as family structure, race, and income effect the health of a child; however, in my research I will focus on how socioeconomic factors influence depression specifically. My research also adds onto it and looks at then how substance use places into this whole conversation. Related To My Research TITLE Article 3 TOPIC 3 The goal of this study was to look at how socioeconomic status impacts adolescent use of marijuana. Participants were aged 11-17. Indirect and direct measures were used to look at how socioeconomic status (Hollingshead measure of socioeconomic status, urbancity, neighborhood problems) could be used to predict the usage of marijuana in adolescents. The study found there to be a difference in males and females. When the analysis had been conducted, a nonlinear relationship was found between Hollingshead measure of socioeconomic status and marijuana. In women, Hollingshead measure was not significant when alcohol use and having friends who use marijuana were added to the model. These results suggest that alcohol use and friends who use marijuana mediates the relationship between the effects of socioeconomic status and the use of marijuana. Some of the other variables that were looked at in the study are: employment, friends who use marijuana, alcohol consumption, grade point average, commitment to friends, urbanicity, amount of time spent with friends, and peer strain. These variables were looked at in relation to the start of marijuana usage. The researchers found that psychosocial risk factors for initial marijuana usage are much different for men than for women. Continued TITLE TITLE This study primarily focuses on how socioeconomic factors influence both men and women separately on their initial marijuana usage. My research will further the study by not breaking the participants up according to sex; but rather, look at the participants as a whole and how socioeconomic factors as well as depression effect substance use. This article serves as a building block for my paper because it looks at one of the substances I will be using as well as psychosocial risk factors, something that I also will be looking into with depression being the psychological side and socioeconomic factors being the social side Relates to My Research TITLE TOPIC 4 TOPIC 4

The word Synesthesia comes from the Greek words syn(together) and aisthesis(perception).So the word means joined perception Synesthesia doesn't appear to affect anyone's intelligence These are 9 major categories. I've also learned that synesthesia is not considered a disease, so there is no "cure". Also, many people who have synesthesia have accepted it and actually like ther lifestyle with synesthesia. Synesthesia has been found more well known in females and left handed people Some famous people such as Pharell Williams and Claude Monet have had synesthesia Background/Research By:Varshini m. My actual experiment "Do certain numbers or lettes make a high percentage of people think of the same color?" is not directly related to synesthesia, it is related to behavioral science. Although, my question can be affected by synesthesia so I've researched on synesthesia for extra information. "The word love has always tasted like the scent of fresh ink and soft paper to me..." Types of Synesthesia " I always see colors when I isten to music. It's difficult to explain...warm and glittery..." The image shows a book that has a character with synesthesia. Fun Facts

Transcript: Our Data/ Anaylsis Trash is produced in many forms and also in many different areas. Most things can be recycled but not everything. We did research and found that some items were thrown away more than others. Some of the most common things in our trash cans were water bottles and plastic bags, but everybody thinks of those. There were however, a few other things littering our earth. Keurig cups, otherwise know as K-Cups, are being used more and more. We decied that we would find a solution to this problem. Once we knew that we were going to use the K-Cup, we had to figure out a solution. We all looked up ways the parts could be used and found a lot. Coffee grounds can repel bugs and get rid of headaches. Pictures After a long time, and inspired by one of group member's inventions for engineering fair, we came up with the idea of making a water filter. We cleaned out a Keurig Cup, and then put in activated cabon. On top we put ripped-up coffee filters. Wen testing it out, the water was filtered, but tasted a little like coffee.
