Finally I have received all
of my surveys back! I am excited to share that my hypothesis for the most part
is correct! My prediction included that the
results of my survey will support my hypothesis that children of an intact
family preform better academically, maintain stronger relationships with their
parents, and have stronger academic expectations placed on them by both
themselves and their parents. Although the results do support my
hypothesis, I noticed that majority of the teens who took the survey from both
intact and divorced families do not ask either of their parents for academic
assistance. I did not find this reaction exceptionally surprising because I,
myself so not ask my parents for academic assistance very often either. Those teens
from intact families who replied that they did ask for academic assistance
received it and teens from divorced families who asked for academic assistance
often did not, which further supports my hypothesis. I also noticed that teens
of intact families have a higher average of academic pressure placed on them from
their parents in comparison to teens of divorced families. The survey also
shows that all the teens surveyed of intact families plan on attending college
in the future and receiving at least a bachelors degree in their field of
choice. In addition to the results above I noticed that on average children of
intact families have stronger relationships with both of their parents than
those of divorced families. After concluding my research analysis, the results
of my survey support my hypothesis! I believe the topic of maintaining an
intact marriage and family is extremely important and should be further
explored and stressed in our society!
