16. RESEARCH QUESTION(S)
It is most certain that I have adjusted my key question(s) during my
research because the question I originally stated was very
objective/clumped up. For instance:
First draft question: Why are interracial relationships looked down
upon especially when he or she is affiliated with an African
American male/female?
Second draft question: How is racism affiliated with Interracial
Relationships?
Third draft question: How are interracial relationships viewed?

17. Fourth draft question: What are the differences
between dating a black (male) and white (female)
and white (male) and black (female)
Fifth draft question: Are black and white
individuals viewed differently when it comes to
interracial relationships?
Sixth draft question: What factors influences
attitudes in an interracial relationship?

18. Seventh draft question: Why is there plenty of
negative attitudes toward a black and white
couple?
Eight draft question: Why are white females judged
more dating an African American vs. a black female
dating a white male?
Absolute question: Are biracial couples judged
contrarily depending on which gender is which
race?

19. METHOD
• I opened a survey on November 8 and closed it on November 29.
• I collected data in multiple ways including posting the survey
through social media – Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
• Additionally, I reached out to my peers and forwarded the
survey.
• Moreover, I tried a different tactic and printed out the survey
at where I work (Honda) and gave a couple of my co-workers (who
are a variety of age) a copy of the survey, as I let them know
it is anonymous.
• I then reported all the results VIA online, as I hold on to the
hard copy. Not only this will provide proof within results but
it provides audacity
