Journal 2: Thinking about the Discussion Section PSY 520 By Nicole Davy 08/16/2023

My original hypothesis was faith healing will not have as conclusive results as medical treatment when it comes to a definitive diagnosis and result. However, after examining the survey results, I am not able to confirm or deny my hypothesis. My ideal goal was to get a total of 10 participants for my survey, but unfortunately only got two.

I do not feel like there were many strengths with this study/survey, as there could be many things to improve on. Now my limitations, that is where I have the most to say.

By gathering the age range, I would be able to guestimate where they mind set is at. Without trying to sound stereotypical, the younger generation, under 40 years old is not really thinking about their future 20, 30, or even 40 years down the road and how their future selves might have to become reliant on others to make decisions for them.
