I'm working on Research Methods, since I got my first methodology assignment back and got an 87%, thankyouverymuch, and am now working on the second methodology assignment. This includes the following sections:

Theory
Research Question
Hypothesis
Population
Study Population
Sampling Unit
Sampling Frame
Sample Size
Sampling Approach
Justification (for approach to data collection)
Limitations
Analysis
Draft of Data Collection System (Questionnaire/survey)

In the first part, which is where I am, I have to discuss how my independent and dependent variables causally relate. And you know what I'm discovering? That it can be argued that people could lie to others online for ANY REASON. People can either be more or less honest in the hopes of community acceptance, for instance, whereas, when I drew up my schematic of interrelation of variables, I figured they'd be more dishonest to try to gain community acceptance, but that isn't necessarily the case. I'm more honest when meeting new people online, for instance, because what if I lie and I get to know them and OMG, they find out I lied?

I hope my data collection proves that people aren't as huge liars as I'm thinking they could be.
