Georgia Gwinnett College Loneliness Essay

QUESTION

First, find a news story, a current one, you can use any news outlet you like, NYT, or CNN, really any reporting agency that is free to access. Then, on that website, find a news story related to psychological research, maybe a report on depression and teens, the brain and aging, or how the presence of dogs in our life increases our lifespans. Tell us why you chose that piece of research to write about, what the research results are, and then, to the best of your ability, what research methodology was used to get the results reported. https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/05/health/relationships-2024-resolutions-wellness/index.html
Then, if you can, find the original study online, you can google it and find the abstract or the original study itself. You might even ask one of eCore’s embedded librarians for help with this. Do your best, this will help you learn how to “get to the source” and how to check results yourself instead of relying just on the news report. https://news.gallup.com/opinion/gallup/512618/almost-quarter-world-feels-lonely.aspx
Finally, write how the research you found has weaknesses and strengths and how we might overcome these weaknesses by suggesting another methodology. Tell us a personal experience, a reflection you feel safe to share, related to the research you have reported on.
