The Social Structures Of Women

|A random group of apartments was selected from a city to analyze the number of bedrooms they have. Is there evidence to reject |

I conducted a survey, asking 20 females and 20 males their favorite food group for my AP Statistics project. I surveyed on Wednesday, September 27 and on Thursday, September 28 at Marshall High School. They chose from protein, grain, vegetables, fruit, and dairy. From the data, I found that 10 males and 2 females liked protein best, 3 males and 2 females liked grains best, 1 male and 1 female liked vegetables best, 3 males and 13 females liked fruit best, and 3 males and 2 females liked dairy best. Half of the males liked protein best, while most females liked fruits best. The least amount of both males and females liked vegetables. From this data, we can see that males like protein more than females do, and females like fruit more than males

Gender – whether there was a difference in performance between genders; used for comparison between male and female participants

Who listens to R&B music more females or males? We guessed that more females listened R&B music than males. After interviewing a group of males and females I was able to come up with the conclusion that more females listened to R&B music than most males. All of these participants were handpicked from a sociology class. These participants consisted of nine males and nine females. I choose to ask students who were either in band or those who listened to online radios on daily basis. Finally, I asked each participant how many R&B songs they listen to in one day. In the first paragraph, describe the statistical analyses you performed. The data that I gathered showed that females listened to more R&B songs in a day than males do. Chart 1 shows

My second table shows the percentage of individuals within the two genders that voted for Obama, Romney, and Other. This data shows that 48.7% of those in the male category voted for Obama, while 54.9% of those in the female category voted for Obama. The data does tend to support my hypothesis that females are more likely to vote for the Democratic candidate. There is a 6.2% difference between males that voted for Obama and females that voted for Obama, which is significant enough to observe a deviance but not to generalize all men and women, as there may be outliers. My Chi-square number is 30.95 and

She created a resume study looking at whether participation in college athletics affects employment after graduation. She had four different resumes that had equal content and she manipulated the names on the resume by using the census’ top names for white and black people, as well as randomly assigning which resume had sports. By taking advantage of PrePP from the psychology department at Simmons as well as paying people on Amazon to take her survey on which resume they would hire. She found that white people were more hirable than black people due most likely to internalized racism. Also, she found that participation in sports had a less hirable rate presumably due to women’s gender roles that playing sports made a woman less lady-like. She also said that black individuals received a smaller penalty for playing sports that white individuals and she linked this stereotype of black individuals being more aggressive and athletic, so they are not held to the same femininity standard as white women. She split her data from Simmons college student, then white Simmons college students and found that white Simmons college students compensated for their internalized misogyny by accidently enforcing racial stereotypes. White Simmons college students ranked black Simmons athletes an 8 from a scale from 1 to 10 on hire-ability when the average rating was a 6, she said it was mostly likely due to their white guilt. I asked her why did she decided to do this study, and she said she did a preliminary study focusing on hire-ability and sports and she wanted to add race. I also gave her the idea of adding social economic status into her research because most people of color play sports for college scholarship and that maybe a reason to why they are penalized less, playing sports could be their way of affording

Our world is constantly changing to where some old gender values are shifted for a new. Examples of those values might be women’s rights, rights for homosexuals and others that are part of the LGBTQ+ community, and other minorities in the world today. In four separate projects, our class analysed data collected by the entire class about 4 different aspects of gender roles and different races in our society. One fact that caught my attention came from the project asking on single question. The results of the question showed that people in our society today are possible more accepting of a homosexual being a doctor than a women. (Postel & Group, The Quandary) I plan to analyze the results of the question as well as other facts from the other

For this study on the impact of circle style seating in the classroom, the participants consisted entirely of Tenth Grade English students. These students as a whole originated in both urban and rural communities and also come from a variety of socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds. All of the students are considered on pace with their grade level requirements, thus giving them the distinction of general level learners – neither above nor below. The student population as a whole consists of African American, Latina/Latino, and Caucasian learners. Given that my goal is to determine the effectiveness of circle style seating, I plan on targeting the entire class instead of just a few students in particular. Doing so will correlate well with the

November 24, 1922 12pm.: Ever since I cut my hair I’ve never felt so free. I refuse to wear the corsets that I have been obligated to use since childhood. You cannot believe how relived I am to not have to wear those tight close fitting undergarments. So instead I have started wearing loose dresses that I feel more comfortable in. My mother always told me that men liked women with a slim waist and emphasized breast and with my new look no man will want to marry me. Of course she is livid. Not only at the fact that I cut the “beautiful long cascade of never ending long dark hair” as she says, but mostly because I’m rebelling against society’s norm. I’ve decided that it is time to take a stand for my rights and fight for my independence. I refuse to comply too these social norms. The submissive woman, restricted from freedom due to her traditional modest, accustomed, womanly gender roles. I will not be that woman. I will be the change. I’ve seen my mother, grandmother do it for years and I’ve had it. We have been repressed, and made slaves of the household generating a perspective that all we have to offer is pleasing our men and doing chores. But these social conventions will finally come to an end. Thanks too many women who have decided to be the change for today’s society. The Voting right for women has already commenced. And I can’t find the words to describe how incredibly joyful I am that now we have the right to vote. As of now we have a whole new sector of power and

A categorical analysis is when you use categorical variables that are qualitative in nature and absent of any measurement to draw conclusions, to make predictions, or to make business decisions based from the gathered data (Mirabella, 2011). Based on the data set provided in the sample, I conducted an analysis on the categorical variables regarding their gender, major, if employed and whether they work fulltime or not. I used the data to come to a few conclusions. I found that male students were more indecisive on a major compared to the women. Thirty five percent of the males were listed to have no major and only fifteen percent of the females were without a major. Out of all the students, Leadership was the most selected major at 35%

There were a few patterns that appeared in my experiment such as more males were rolling through stop signs than females. Some aspects that could be affecting my results would be the age of my subjects. In the experiment, I divided the genders into drivers with gray hair and drivers without gray hair. The reason I divided them like that was so that those with gray hair would be the representation for older people driving and the people without white hair would be a representation for the younger people. 43.3% of the people I watched came to a complete stop at the stop sign compared to the 56.6% of people who rolled through the stop sign, this was both combined sexes, as well as, gray hair and no gray hair drivers. The combined sexes with

Assumption 2 of the t test is that there will be independence of observation. Here, a participant can only be a member of the male group or the female group; this cannot overlap and a person can only be assigned to one group. This will not be tested via a visual component, as this assumption is based on setting up the research correctly.

The question that I set out to study was whether more men or women used their phones while walking. I expected more women than men to use their phones while walking because I believe that women spend more time on social media, texting, and making phones call when they are in public spaces, particularly in the mall, which is where I conducted the observation. Women often go to the mall in groups, and when in the groups, they tend to look at social media together or text others as they travel from one store to another. My hypothesis was that more women than men would use their phones while walking.

When women do decide to take the path of an engineer there are social barriers which prevent them from fully succeeding in the industry. In higher education and in the industry, women face obstacles different from men which gives them an entirely different experience of being an undergraduate or an engineer. Most men support the masculine gendered engineering field so it does not come to surprise when women struggle to survive as undergraduates and engineers. The early socialization of boys and girls leads right to the traditional roles in adulthood which are already in play before the beginning of college. Moreover, it is the assumptions that have already been ingrained into us. The very clear belief that men belong in the workplace and women in the home. So women not only feel pressure from others, they feel it from within. They have not been socialized to be an engineer while men have. The cold, impersonal world of engineering may or may not be due to solely men, regardless, it poses a problem for women who have grown up in a different world of cooperation and sensitivity. In "Attracting and Retaining Women in Science and Engineering", Sue Rosser discusses the lack of women engineers as a problem with higher education and other institutions. She finds in her research that most women pursuing a career in engineering must balance work and family (2003). Since according to traditional roles, women are the caregivers, they must juggle their families and their careers at the

Using gender as the independent variable, I will examine the effect of being either male or female on the type of job that is pursued after school. Having the concept in mind is crucial to begin the study, as it is this concept which the study is based on. While it can be said that gender is a socially-constructed concept, for the sake of the experiment it will be defined as the biologically-assigned sex which one has; either male or female, rather than what someone defines themselves as. Education is the static variable here – it is the part of the experiment that does not change. In this case, education is the college education that each of the participants will have already completed by time of the experiment. The dependent variable, and another essential concept, is the careers which are going to be pursued. Careers can be defined as the jobs which these people seek, and this is what I’m curious about; whether there is a difference in career choice based on gender. While careers may be seen as a lifelong path for some, for the sake of the experiment, this term will also be used to describe a normal, not so long-term job, such as a cashier – this may better reflect the differences in gender influence. The pursuit of said career is the final concept which entails the journey, or the methods used, in relation to gender, to attain a job. The concept is a bit more complex as rather than examining the concrete nouns addressed in the
