The document is a research proposal by Cynda Tate and Ella Wilkie for their honors world literature class. It outlines their research topic of how military deployment affects children with parents in the armed forces. Their primary research questions examine what aspects have the most negative impact, how children's lives are impacted, and what areas of children's lives are most affected. They plan to use academic databases and Google documents to research the topic and create a digital text using Glogster to present their findings.

Sibling Birth Spacing Influence on Extroversion, Introversion and Aggressiven...inventionjournals
Sibling spacing refers to the birth interval between consecutive children in the family. The family is the basic unit of socialization. Family interactions and other dynamics such as birth order and sibling spacing shape the personality of children. This study investigated the relationship between sibling birth spacing and, extroversion and introversion characteristics of adolescents in Nairobi, Kenya. The study adopted mixed methods research paradigm with the correlation design. Purposive and simple random sampling techniques were used to select three schools for the study sample and participants. From each of the three schools, twenty five students were selected to make a total sample of 75 participants. The data collection instruments for the study were standardized questionnaires and observation guides. Data was collected and analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis and Analysis of Variance. The study concluded that close sibling spacing tends to produce extraverted and highly aggressive children while wide sibling spacing tends to produce introverted and less aggressive children. The study further found that the only children, ranked highest in introversion and, lowest in aggressiveness and extraversion. The study recommended that sibling spacing knowledge should be used by school career guidance masters as locally available method of predicting personality.

Why does it matter?
We live in the digital age
The environment has deep impact on children’s behaviors and development.
Good or bad? It depends on how we use media.
Science behind
Learning from TV and other media:
Require repetition
Familiar characters
Socially relevant and contingent feedback (looks at and talk to the child)
Here is a video represents above three contents in a show.
Children under 2.5 or 3 years old learn better from a real-world than from an equivalent media. They develop the ability of dual representation (need to represent TV as something they learn from) around 3 years old.
Learning two “5”
Children follow 5 steps to learn new things
Sensory register: receives input from the environment and registers it for processing
Information processing: Approach that describes how people learn using a computer analogy
Short-term memory: Holds information temporarily
Long-term memory: Stores information processed from short term memory for later retrieval
Learning response: Recognize and recall information from short- and long-term memory.
5 capabilities that contribute to social learning
Symbolization: can think about social behavior in words and images
Forethought: anticipate consequences of our own and others’ actions
Self-regulation: adopt standards of acceptable behavior for us (aspirational, social, moral)
Self-reflection: analyze our thoughts and actions
Vicarious learning: learn by watching others be rewarded and punished

Parenting instructions:
Media is a new environment for children. Parents should guide them to adapt to the environment.
Consider media as an optional tool for learning. Parents’ companion is necessary for children’s development. It always better to learn from real-world than from the screen.
Don’t use it as an emotional pacifier. Parents should not use TV or other media to calm down their children. They need to learn to control their emotion.
Set limits and encourage playtime. Kids are kids. They will make mistakes using media. Parents’ surveillance is indispensable.
Be a good role model. Except for limiting children’s on-screen playtime, parents should control their time on using media each day.

Handedness and the Diverse Gender-Related Personality Traits in Humans
According to recent meta-analysis, there has been an immoderate amount of
information linked between the likeliness of sexual orientation and laterality. Using one hand
more than the other. The significant data from 6,182 homosexual and 14,808 heterosexual men,
showed that homosexual men had 34% greater odds of being non-right handed than heterosexual
men, and data from 805 homosexual and 1,615 heterosexual women had 91% greater odds of
being non- right handed than heterosexual women RichardA.Lippa,Ph.D.1 Other gender-
atypicality has been linked to this finding, one would be gender identity disorder. In an
international survey, more than 11,000 participants, documented that 10.6% of males and 8.5%
of females are at higher rates of heft- handedness. Even though the number of theories found of
small but reliable gender differences found in handedness, the results remain poorly understood.
Prenatal Androgen Theory is the most reasonable explanation of homosexuality in
the social behavior of human genders. Stating the sexual orientation is established in the womb
during fetal development. Although with more higher androgen exposure, comes more gender
typical patterns of development, in the males case it would be a greater chance of left-
handedness. Corresponding to gender- related personality traits, within sexual orientation groups,
non- right handedness is associated with masculine traits for both sexes. Predictions have been
made based on simple linear version of prenatal hormone theory, the androgens masculinize
behavior between sex and then is compared on average (James, 1989). Consequently there has
been strong data shown the prenatal hormone theory of handedness, concluding that the non-
right-handedness occurs more in the males sex than females.
Handedness and the Diverse Gender-Related Personality Traits in Humans
Neurological and developmental problems can be the cause of so many theories.
For instance the Pathological left- handedness theory, stating that left-handedness is caused by
pathological stressors, as in birth traumas, or cerebrum impairments. Evidence has proven that
left-handedness is associated with numerous cognitive developmental problems, including
learning disabilities, intellectual retardation, autism, cerebral palsy, etc. (Previc,1996). An
argument has been made that moderate right-handedness is the optimal evolved human trait and
therefore that developmental instability leads both to non-right ...

Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.

Research Design Proposal Lester 2012
1. Cynda Tate and Ella Wilkie
Honors World Literature
Ms. Lester
29 March 2012
Research Design Proposal Spring 2012
1) Research Paper Topic
When Ella and I first discovered that we would be doing a project about war, we both
were very interested in how the soldier’s family at home was affected. After we started to
research the topic, I shared with Ella that my great grandfather fought in World War II. We
concluded that it would be fascinating to look into the effects of deployed parents on military
children, especially since my grandmother was once in this situation.
2) What I Know about the Topic at This Point and Why We’re Interested in This Topic
In this stage of pre-search, we have discovered that some of the main studies of children
with deployed parents was in Desert Storm. These studies revealed interesting results which have
lead to the studies that are now occurring in present day. Researchers have proven through
various tests and examinations that having deployed parents causes many negative emotional and
psychological effects on children. Some of these negative effects have been categorized as
Military Family Syndrome, a term used to describe a set of traits presumably resulting from the
influence on children growing up within military families and communities. We have also
discovered that there are three main areas which potentially cause stress on children with
military parents. These areas include parental deployments, injuries and psychiatric illnesses of
parents, and death of service member parents. Children in these specific situations face certain
2. challenges that other children do not have to deal with, often times leading to stress and anxiety.
The topic of military children was appealing to Ella and I because being teenagers ourselves, we
could not begin to imagine what it would be like to live a life with one or both of our parents
being separated from us. We are anxious to continue to learn about the everyday challenges that
these children deal with both internally and externally.
3) What We Want To Learn
Ella and I are curious to how much children are negatively affected by having parent(s)
in war. Through our pre-search, we have discovered some specific areas that are impacted,
however, we want to find out if these unfavorable effects are lasting. If so, we would like to
discover how long they last in the children's’ lifetimes. We believe if it could be proven that
these consequences last through adulthood, the issue would bring much more attention. Another
area we would like to look more into is whether different age groups and genders are affected
more or less than others. There has been a lot of controversy in this area throughout our
presearch, so it is still very foggy. The last and most important category we hope to learn more
about is the comparison between children with deployed parents and those without. Researchers
have proven that there is a difference between the children’s mental and physical behavior as
well as in other aspects of the children’s lives, but we are curious to how drastic these
differences really are.
4) Our Initial List of Questions We Have About Our Topic
1) What are all the traits included in Military Family Syndrome and how severe is each one?
2) Are parental deployments, injuries and illnesses or military parents, and potential deaths the
3. only three areas that affect children, or are there more?
3) What are some of the everyday challenges that children with military parents face that other
children do not have to face?
4) How does the media affect military families?
5) What other programs, other than the U.S. Army Family Advocacy Program, are trying to help
the children’s situations?
6) What is another cause, other than being a single parent, that causes neglect in army families?
7) How are children expected to be raised properly when one or both parents are off at war?
8) If a parent returns home from war not functioning properly, how are children expected to go
on with their everyday lives?
9) How does it make children feel when their parent deploys when they are very young, so when
they return, they do not even remember who their own mother/ father is?
10) Does gender and age play a role in how much a child is affected by a parent being in war?
11) What happens to children who do not have a decent support system, such as grandparents or
friends, to take care of them while their parent(s) are gone.
5) Our Three Primary Research Questions
1) What aspects of having deployed parents have the most negative impact on military children?
2) How are children’s lives impacted by having deployed parents?
3) What are the areas in children’s lives that are most affected by having deployed parents
(school, mental, physical, behavioral) and why are these areas affected more than others?
6) Our Research Plan
As of right now, Academic Search Complete is very promising. Cynda and I both have
4. collected several articles from this database and are very sure that they will assist us in producing
a successful final product. Sweet Search is also a very helpful tool that has presented us with
various articles. We like Sweet Search due to the fact that it is more like a search engine, similar
to Google. Therefore, when searching, we are provided with an abundance of passages directly
related to our topic.
After much discussion, Cynda and I have come to the conclusion that we will use Google
Documents to display the articles we have collected before we enter them into our citation
management tool, EasyBib. Through sharing a Google Doc, we will be able to discuss with each
other which articles we plan on using. Netvibes was a new tool that peaked both of our interests,
therefore it seems like a promising candidate for organizing and managing our information.
Cynda and I both also plan on working diligently with each other during class, as well as
meeting outside of school, to ensure our project is completed successfully. We are planning on
researching and writing our project together so that we both are given the same responsibilities
and tasks.
At first, Cynda and I imagined that working together might have its difficulties, being
that we will have to divide and conquer throughout research and writing. However, although we
have only begun the pre-search period, we both agree that this is turning out to be much more
simple and therefore much more enjoyable.
7) Content Creation Tools
To create our final product, Cynda and I have come to the decision that we want to use
Glogster as our main creation tool. Through Glogster, we will expand into Prezi, Voicethread,
Word, etc. We plan on creating a powerful, yet interesting product that will inform the public of
5. the hardships children suffer from having a deployed parent or parents.
8) Final Learning Product
Cynda and I have thought long and hard about how we plan on creating our final product.
What we have come up with is similar to that of a Digital Text. We plan on creating a Glogster
with several different digital elements compiled onto the page. Prezi and Voicethread may very
well be incorporated into our Glogster. We feel that through using this form of Multigenre Text,
there will be more interest in our topic. Human beings tend to enjoy various elements that please
the eye. Cynda and I want to include several different interactive elements so that our audience is
not easily distracted or bored throughout their exploration of the effects war has on children with
deployed parents.
We both agree on the decision to use a mindmap to organize our research topics and
subtopics. Both of us have found the mindmaps very enjoyable, due to the fact that they allow us
to express our individual creativity.
