Introduction
Throughout this course you will be creating a research project. Most of your weekly assignments will take you step by step through the process of creating a final research paper. This paper will be due in week 7. To begin this process you will be choosing a topic for your project and will be doing a preliminary literature review.

Please note: The research topic you choose in this assignment will be the same that you use for the rest of your assignments

Activity Instructions
For the first part of this assignment you need to choose an appropriate topic to research. In your textbook it describes four key qualities of a study topic; generalizable, social pattern, aggregated, and empirically observable. Please keep these qualities in mind as you choose your topic. You should also try to choose a topic that you could do a survey on.

For example, you could look at tattoos and income level. You could ask people how many tattoos they have on their body, and their current monthly income. You may find that some individuals may be reluctant to share information about their income. Also, any topic involving sexual behavior is often very hard to get accurate data unless you use very sophisticated surveying.
