    RESEARCH STUDIES 3I participated in two studies, one was “Do you have a positive personality?” ” and the other was “Social needs and Facebook use”. I think the hypothesis of Do You Have a Positive Personality is that more people have a positive personality than a negative one, and the research study that I conducted will prove that to be true or false. The purpose of the study for the person following it is to determine whether they have a positive or negative personality. The hypothesis of social needs and Facebook use is that people's social skills and Facebook are related. In which, by taking the study, it will benefit the researchers whether they are related or not. One question that was asked in the question "Do you have a positive personality", was I was trying to consider everyone's perspective before making a decision, and the choices were not describing me well, describes me very well, or somewhere in between. My answer describes me very well, and I think that's common among people, so a lot of people would answer describes me very well, and that would increase the chances that more people would have a more positive personality. Another question asked in this study was that I often have tender and worried feelings towards people less fortunate than me. The choices were doesn't describe me well, describes me very well, and somewhere in between. I chose the answer that describes me very well, and I think that might determine whether you care about others, or whether you care more about yourself, and I think more people care about others than others. 'themselves. Which also leads to whether you have a positive or negative personality. Another question asked in the study was that I am generally objective when watching a movie or play, and I don't often get completely caught up in the middle of a paper......both cognitive facets are fantasy and perspective taking. For the other study, Social Needs and Facebook Use, there were no results other than thanks for your participation. However, he explains that the aim of the study was to determine people's social needs and their use of Facebook. Other data elements, such as gender, are collected to help identify any unexpected findings. I think the study didn't produce results because if I participated in the study it would prove the hypothesis true or false, and that would be of no use to me.
