...Research Proposal on Smoking Amongst Teenage Girls in Secondary School. In the following proposal, I intend to put forward a proposal to study the smoking habits of teenage girls in secondary school. It has come to my attention that this is a problem area that is on the rise. I wish to use government funding to conduct research into this issue. It is my belief that if I can find the root of the problem, and discover why many young girls are smoking, I will then be able to propose and launch initiatives to try and tackle the problem altogether. In this proposal I endeavour to put forward the importance of my research question; why are the teenage girls in attending secondary school in Ireland smoking. Weather its due to a lack of information, peer pressure or the pressures of school I intend to find out. I intend to use three different types of research methods to gain information on why these girls are smoking. The first method I will use is focus groups. I think these will be useful on gaining an insight into these girl’s lives and to build a relationship with them. I will be able to see different reactions and will hopefully receive a lot of feedback. I’m also aware that in a focus group some members may be too shy or intimidated to speak up, this has lead me to my second research method which will be in-depth one to one interviews with girls. With these interviews I hope to get to the real truth of why these girls are smoking and what it would take to make them...

...THE UNIVERSITY OF THE WEST INDIES CAVE HILL CAMPUS Faculty of Social Sciences Department of Government, Sociology, Social Work and Psychology PSYC3022: RESEARCH PROJECT IN APPLIED PSYCHOLOGY Parental Influence: Implications for the Prevention Of Early Childhood Obesity Abstract The overall purpose of this study was to investigate whether parents serve as role models in influencing their children’s weight-related behaviours. Participants were 60 random parents of children from Barbados. Unlike previous research studies, the correlation analyses of this study indicated that the junk food or fast foods children consumed was negatively associated with the amount of income made by the parents or their education level. Although it was found that some children do model their parents’ behaviour when it comes to healthy food choices, the findings show that parents do not enforce the healthy eating practices unto their children. This study did not support the theory that children model adult eating behaviours on their own. Parental Influence: Implications for the Prevention Of Early Childhood Obesity Some researchers in public health have concluded that the problem of early childhood obesity has reached near-epidemic proportions (Deckelbaum & Williams 2001; Puhl & Latner 2007).
