...teams, and hone their skills and develop their ability to its maximum potential. Attending college is indeed a preparation to the actual work that one must experience. It is a journey that young people need to undertake in order to be ready to face the challenges of life. It is one of the developmental tasks that they must overcome successfully. Education and multiple skills enhancement have become the principal vehicles in the creation of sustainable advantage in the competitive world market. Poor academic performance has been implicated as one of the major factors for adolescents to have poor self-esteem (Call et al, 1990, cited by Isaac et al., 2006). These individuals do not have the passion and motivation to persevere in their studies. They could not see what lies ahead and what they will be expected to do when they reach their next stage of development. Consequently, they are confused academically and hoping to have a guide who will help them in this moment of personal and academic struggles. Hurlock (2000) also pointed out that academic performance is one of the developmental tasks adolescents need to accomplish, successful achievement of which leads to happiness and success with later tasks, while failure leads to unhappiness and difficulty. In this connection, the researchers would tend to believe that tourism students have disadvantage when it comes to their academic preparation unless the necessary support is given by their parents and school as well.

...know which one would benefit you the most? The VARK analysis tool can help you find the answer to that question. VARK stands for Visual, Aural/Auditory, Read/Write, and Kinesthetic which are the four categories of learning preferences. The online VARK questionnaire is free and consists of 16 questions that are based on real-life situations that users can easily answer and relate to. Users are able to check more than one answer to each question if more than one answer applies to them. After finishing the questions, the user is provided with a score in each of the 4 categories. If a person scores high in more than one area they are considered multi modal and are flexible in their learning styles (VARK, n.d.). The website then provides several study strategies for each learning preference that users can implement to improve their learning. The website cautions that “The results indicate a 'rule of thumb' and should not be rigidly applied. Remember that the questionnaire is not intended to 'box' respondents into a mindset that they have been 'diagnosed'. Rather, it is designed to initiate discussion about, and reflection upon, learning preferences” (VARK, n.d.) The author of this paper completed the online questionnaire and discovered that she has a strong read/write learning preference. The VARK website states that “people who prefer this modality are often addicted to PowerPoint, the Internet, lists, diaries, dictionaries, thesauri, quotations and words, words, words“(VARK...

...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). The problem of early childhood obesity and overweight appears to be on-going without implementation of early detection and prevention...
