DO PEOPLE WHO EXIBIT RISKY BEHAVIORS (SMOKING, GAMBLING, DRINKING) ORDER THEIR STEAK IN THE SAME RISKY MANNER AS THEIR BEAHVIORS (RARE). IS THERE A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE TWO.

THE CENTRAL QUESTION WOULD ASK DO PEOPLE WHO HAVE AN AFFINITY FOR RISKY BEHAVIORS, SPECIFICALLY (SMOKING, DRINKING, GAMBLING) ALSO HAVE A RISKY BEHAVIOR WHEN IT COMES TO EATING THEIR FOOD. SPECIFICALLY IN THIS STUDY, IT IS ABOUT ORDERING STEAK.
I AM INTERESTED IN THIS QUESTION BECASUE IT IS INTERESTING TO SEE IF FOOD RISK BEHAVIORS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH ACTIVITY RISK BEHAVIORS. I ALSO AM INTERESTED TO SEE IN THIS STUDY HOW INCOME LEVELS EFFECT THESE DECISIONS AS WELL AS EDUCATION LEVELS, WHICH IS ALSO IN THE STUDY.

*List 2-4 specific research questions. Each should be answerable
using your data set.*

1. DO MORE MALES THAN FEMALES ORDER RARE STEAK?
2. DO PEOPLE WITH A BACHELORS DEGREE GAMBLE MORE THAN PEOPLE WITH A GRADUATE DEGREE?
3. DO PEOPLE WHO ORDER RARE STEAK ALSO DRINK?
4. DO ALL FEMALES WHO ORDER RARE STEAK ALSO SMOKE?
5. DO ALL MALES WHO ORDER RARE STEAK ALSO DRINK
6. Are males more likely to order their steak rare than females

## Overarching Question
DO PEOPLE WHO EXIBIT RISKY BEHAVIORS (SMOKING, GAMBLING, DRINKING) ORDER THEIR STEAK IN THE SAME RISKY MANNER AS THEIR BEAHVIORS (RARE). IS THERE A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE TWO.
### What central question are you interested in exploring? Why are you interested in exploring this question?
**A sleep study using males and females using bedtimes/wakeup times and hours of sleep for the weekday, for kids ages 11-14, to see how much sleep students are getting during the week and if there is a difference between ages and males and females. Also does their attendance percentage in school correlate with more sleep.
I am interested in this becasue I teach 11-14 year olds
THE CENTRAL QUESTION WOULD ASK DO PEOPLE WHO HAVE AN AFFINITY FOR RISKY BEHAVIORS, SPECIFICALLY (SMOKING, DRINKING, GAMBLING) ALSO HAVE A RISKY BEHAVIOR WHEN IT COMES TO EATING THEIR FOOD. SPECIFICALLY IN THIS STUDY, IT IS ABOUT ORDERING STEAK.
I AM INTERESTED IN THIS QUESTION BECASUE IT IS INTERESTING TO SEE IF FOOD RISK BEHAVIORS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH ACTIVITY RISK BEHAVIORS. I ALSO AM INTERESTED TO SEE IN THIS STUDY HOW INCOME LEVELS EFFECT THESE DECISIONS AS WELL AS EDUCATION LEVELS, WHICH IS ALSO IN THE STUDY.
*This should be the big picture question that you ask; use at least 5
sentences to describe why you are interested in it.*
Does a high attendance percentage >95%, have a relationship with high sleep hours per night (>7hrs. per night) as well as age and gender. Does this relationship differ between males and females and ages. Overall does age, gender, and sleep hours have a relationship with high attendance, >95%?
### What specific research questions will you investigate?
*List 2-4 specific research questions. Each should be answerable
using your data set.*
Average sleep for females
Average sleep for males
Average wakeup time for females
Average wakeup time for males
Average attendance % for males
Average attendance % for females
Average sleep for 11,12,13,and 14 year olds
Average sleep for 11.12.13.14 year old males/females
1. DO MORE MALES THAN FEMALES ORDER RARE STEAK?
2. DO PEOPLE WITH A BACHELORS DEGREE GAMBLE MORE THAN PEOPLE WITH A GRADUATE DEGREE?
3. DO PEOPLE WHO ORDER RARE STEAK ALSO DRINK?
4. DO ALL FEMALES WHO ORDER RARE STEAK ALSO SMOKE?
5. DO ALL MALES WHO ORDER RARE STEAK ALSO DRINK
6. Are males more likely to order their steak rare than females
