Discussion

Weaknesses:

Our main weakness was the sample size of our survey. Because of poor planning on our part, and the nonresponse bias of the students we sent the surveys to, the sample size was not large enough to do the test we wanted to run.

Extrapolation:

This test could be easily extrapolated to many other schools, and possibly age groups. Our population had a large variety of students, and for this it seems very reasonable that you could extrapolate to other schools. This study could be extrapolated to other age groups, because the problem we have is simply a relationship between parent and child.

 

Improvements:

We had one major area where we could have improved our study. For future studies of this sort a much larger sample size is needed, because as in the case with us we couldn't even get the results of the test.
