Classroom Observation Paper

On Thursday October 22, I went with Sarah Pritt to recruit participants for her math-science anxiety research project. Sarah is a graduate student here at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, who is part of Dr. Roehrich’s research group. She hoped to recruit male participants who are planning on teaching math to elementary students. Last time the study was run, the results were significant, representing that math and science anxiety does exist and gender plays a role. However, this time around they hoped to add more men to their population size in order to strengthen the results. We went to a classroom that was located in Stright Hall. Sarah began by introducing herself to the four men in the class, and read a blurb about what her study was about. She was able to gather four men that were interested in participating in the study.

BASICS (Brief Alcohol Screening and Intervention with College Students, is a program designed to reduce the issues of drinking amongst college students. BASICS are completed in a group setting. However there is a dispute whether or not group therapy is more useful compared to individual therapy for the treatment of alcohol and drug

Lastly, the survey was a self report so there was no determining whether of not someone was over reporting or under reporting the amount of alcohol they were consuming, which gave people the opportunity to leave questions blank resulting in missing data. Along with the limitations in this study there were strengths as well, although the sampling was done during the summer semester and the questionnaires were not mandatory they were still able to get 283 of the 303 participants to complete the surveys.
