Experimen Experiments

In order to find the connection between the level of education and income, research methods need to established. To find the relationship between the two, I would use the methods of survey and experiments. Survey method allows a collection of a specific population and from that populations a sample population can be extracted to represent the whole. Given a random survey preformed at a local festival would give the general population a chance to participate since all sorts of people attend community social events. I would use the closed ended questions to collect the data with neutral questions like, “Did you graduate high school” and “Where does your income fall into these range of numbers.” Furthermore, if there was a need to break down the sample further, a stratified random method could be applied to separate men from women and the young from the older.
An experiment conducted at the start of high school and tracked well into the subjects 30’s would generate the best results. A experiment over this time period would be able to track the how, why, and where the subject is by the end of the trial. Independent and dependent variables would show how the sample skewed from course changing their lives. For example, the independent variable at the start would be everyone having the opportunity for an education, making everyone equal in the study. Example of independent, Ana goes to high school and graduates. Then there is the dependent variable that depends on a change that effects the end process. Example of dependent variable, Ana goes to high school, but is bullied and drops out, now she makes minimum wage. The dependent variable is being bullied causing her not to finish. Information on the variables would better track the education and income hypothesis for the data
