After completing our study, our overall results showed some significant problems. Our weaknesses???
Problem 1. Only 50 surveys were sent out and not all 50 were returned back to us. Only 29 surveys were returned. This would provide for inaccurate conclusions.
Problem 2. This topic was a very touchy for teenagers. Drinking and Smoking? What student would want the school to know of these illegal habits? So it is possible students could have lied so they would not get into trouble.
Lets continue our survey out to other students!
This survey could 100% without a doubt be spread out to other students across the nation. Every teenager goes through peer pressures and smoking and drinking are a huge part of those pressures. So the entire highschool could be surveyed to find out if freshmen and sophmores do know about these types of experiences. It wouldn't matter what the location, but other schools could take this survey.
Lets improve this study!
This study could be improved by sending out more surveys to students so the chance of getting them back would be higher. To make sure that all surveys would be returned, it could be mandatory to fill out surveys. Results would become more accurate with the right amount of surveys attained.
