Results

I gained a significant amount of respondents for my survey's. Starting from 42 to 39. They decreased as each one was created, not by many but this could have been because my network was slowly becoming disinterested in my research area and overloaded with questions.

Refining my Question

So, it's pretty obvious that the title question for my area of research is 'Is Age Really Just a Number'. From this starting point I have looked into many of the subquestions that this could stem off towards:

  • Too old to be doing certain things?
  • How old is too old to be living at home?
  • Does your age limit your lifestyle?
  • Are children growing up to quickly?
  • Are you scared of getting old? 
  • What age to have children?
  • How big is too big of an age gap?


From these many subareas of discussion I have chosen three to focus on, so that I can concentrate my processes onto my main areas:

  • Age to have children - e.g. How old is too old, How young is acceptable, Does it actually matter, should women be eligible for IVF after menopause?
  • Growing Younger - e.g. Are children growing up to quickly, What age are children drinking, Are adults trying to cling to their youth, Does out society embrace growing old naturally.
  • Age Gaps - e.g How big is too big of an age gap, Does it matter in a relationships or friendships, Does it make a difference the male or female is older?
