Week 2 - Assignment 1: Associate Research Concept and
Research Question
Question one
Question stem: How do differences in age group contribute to
chronic disease?
Participants
The main participants in this research study are people of
different age groups ranging from youths and older adults of
both genders who are at high risk of chronic disease victims.
Participants to use in this research study will be grouped to help
in collecting reliable information for better decision making.
Research context
Statistically, chronic diseases are common among old age
people. The high rate of such infections among older adults is
due to a low metabolic rate because to reduce physical activities
among older adults. As well, chronic disease is also common
among young adult who lives poor lifestyle choices like poor
diet, overconsumption of alcohol and frequent smoking (Woolf,
Aron, National Academies & Institute of Medicine, 2013)
Purpose and impact of the research
The purpose of this research is to study how differences in age
group affect the rate of infection of chronic diseases among
people living in the United States. In doing so, data will be
collected from different age groups ranging from young adults
to old adults.
The main impact of this study is to identify the most affected
age group with chronic diseases to find possible causes of
action that should be then to reduce the chances of infections.
For example, a high rate of infection among young people due

2. to the high rate of smoking can be reduced by advising them to
stop engaging such activities (Busse & Blümel, 2011).
Aspects of the main focus
The critical element to address in this study is to find possible
ways of reducing infection of chronic diseases among the
different age groups in the United States. To achieve the goal of
the research study, a random sampling method will be done to
collect data about how age group differences infection of
chronic diseases. In doing so, relevant information will be
collected from participants for analysis to answer the research
question. Another essential step that should be done in this
study is to identify the right participants that will help in
collecting relevant information (Busse & Blümel, 2011).
The main research focus
The main focus of this research study is to address or answer
the research question. It will pay more attention to how
differences in age group contribute to many infections of
chronic diseases. Based on past research studies, it evident that
differences in age groups affect the risk of being chronic
diseases. However, to confirm whether research results that
have been discussed by others, it is essential to conduct this to
find a possible solution that can help solve the research
question (Busse & Blümel, 2011).
Question stem: How does the relationship between ages
influence chronic disease affection among different groups of
people?
Participants
The key participants in this research study are adults of
different age groups of people of 21 years old and above. The
sampling process of participants should primarily base on
unique observable factors as such risks issues. Participants to be
used in this research study will be grouped to help in collecting
reliable information for better decision making.
Research context
According to the Center for Diseases Control (CDC), chronic
diseases are rampant among old age people than you people in

3. the United States (Adefegha, 2018). A high rate of chronic
diseases such as heart and kidney diseases among older adults is
because to reduced engaging in physical activities. Besides,
Wealth Health Organization revealed that the relationship
between ages affects the rate of chronic diseases in the United
States (Adefegha, 2018). For example, older adults can get
chronic diseases such as heart attacks as a result of how they
see their children suffering. Nevertheless, chronic illness is also
associated with life poor lifestyle choices like poor diet,
overconsumption of alcohol, and frequent smoking among the
different age groups.
Purpose and impact of the study
The fundamental goal of this research study is to establish the
relationship between ages and infection of chronic diseases
among residents of the United States. According to earlier
studies, there is a direct relationship between age and the
contamination of chronic illness among different groups of
people. The effect of this study is that its attempt to establish
and identify the link between ages and chronic diseases
infection among different ages in the United States (Adefegha,
2018).
Aspect of focus
The central element of focus in this study is to answer the
research question. In doing so, the result obtained should be
able to confirm whether there is a significant relationship
between age and chronic disease infections. The research of this
study should ensure that appropriate sampling methods are used
to collect data for decision making.
The main research focus
The main focus of this research study is to address or answer
the research question. It will pay more attention to how
differences in age group contribute to many infections of
chronic diseases. According to past studies, there is a
significant relationship between age and chronic diseases in the
United States (Huong, Ha & Tien, 2017). As such, the research
must be able to state the degree of relationship between age and

4. chronic disease infections.
