RJA #4c: Field Research Options

Field Research:

1) I will conduct several interviews with household members and family from across the country and the world, including randomly picked students at the Red Rocks Campus. These interviews will take place over the phone, through Skype, face-to-face, and will be recorded on paper.

2) I am planning on creating a survey based on my topic on the website surveymonkey.com. I will be posting the URL on many social networking sites to maximize a wide audience participation.

3) I will be going to Washington State in the next month, where my parents are going to have a litter of Boxer's puppies soon, giving me the opportunity to witness the true effects of oxytocin in animal instincts first hand and up close.

4) I plan on visiting the Denver Zoo to observe how animals (mainly mature mothers) take care of their young, while trying to figure out the correlation between instinct and this hormone.

5) I am going to create a poll which will allow me to determine how many people realize we have a hormone which possibly without could lead to a halt in evolution and reproduction.
