INSTRUCTIONS:

I`ve attached my annotated bibliography,and literature review to give you some direction with the paper. (With References/Sources). The topic is “The Correlation Between Socioeconomic Status and Obesity.” The main focus is American society but some comparison can be made with others if it helps. The research method used for this paper is a secondary data analysis/content analysis. Professor Guidelines Below: Submit 4 pages in which you explain the details of your research methods. Be very specific. You will want to refer to textbooks on research methods for this section. Explain how you collected your data using a ( secondary data analysis/ content analysis)and why you chose this method. Include the operationalization of variables, sampling, and time dimension (e.g., cross-sectional or longitudinal). Tell the reader exactly what you did in such a way that the reader could replicate your research. The following questions should be answered. Stage 4 Research Methods Questions A.What is my hypothesis? What is my independent variable? dependent variable? B.What do I expect to find given the literature I reviewed? C.What do I expect will occur?(i.e., factors that I think are important, but previous research has overlooked.) IV.Empirical Test (if applicable) A.Methodology 1.How did I carry out my research (e.g., secondary data analysis, interviews, observation, and content analysis of documents)? 2.How did I choose my sample? How and where did I locate my sample?(IF APPLICABLE) 3. How does this particular methodology answer my question? Why did I use this method? Stage 5: Analysis/Findings/Discussion Submit 4 pages indicating the main findings from your research. Graphs and tables are helpful to illustrate findings. Discuss the implications of your findings for sociological theory, future research, public policy or the community. Results: What did I find? (Use tables, percentages, and quotations to help summarize your findings.) VI.Limitations: If I had unlimited time, money, staff, and training, how would my research look different? VII.Discussion/Conclusion A.How do my findings support previous research? B.Did I find anything especially interesting or surprising? C.What are my suggestions for future research in this area?

The Correlation Between Obesity and Socioeconomic StatusLooking at previous researches about obesity, one can already see that there is a connection between socioeconomic status (SES) and obesity among individuals. Is this observation for countries? In an article published in The Economist, obesity is becoming a problem not only in the United States and United Kingdom, two of the richest nations today, but also in Mexico, Brazil, China and other countries in the developing world ADDIN CSL_CITATION { "citationItems" : [ { "id" : "ITEM-1", "itemData" : { "author" : [ { "dropping-particle" : "", "family" : "Ward", "given" : "Charlotte", "non-dropping-particle" : "", "parse-names" : false, "suffix" : "" } ], "container-title" : "2The Economist", "id" : "ITEM-1", "issued" : { "date-parts" : [ [ "2012", "12" ] ] }, "title" : "The big picture", "type" : "article-magazine" }, "uris" : [ "http://www.mendeley.com/documents/?uuid=624d8e02-1716-40be-b144-7e1a950d284a" ] } ], "mendeley" : { "previouslyFormattedCitation" : "(Ward, 2012)" }, "properties" : { "noteIndex" : 0 }, "schema" : "https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json" }(Ward, 2012). The report says that as of 2008, roughly one-third of the world`s total population is obese or overweight. The article also provides an explanation to the phenomenon of obesity: â€œMuch of the shift is due to economic growth... Greater wealth means that bicycles are abandoned for motorbikes and cars, and work in the fields is swapped for sitting at a desk. In rich countries the share of the population that gets insufficient exercise is more than twice as high as in poor onesâ€ ADDIN CSL_CITATION { "citationItems" : [ { "id" : "ITEM-1", "itemData" : { "author" : [ { "dropping-particle" : "", "family" : "Ward", "given" : "Charlotte", "non-dropping-particle" : "", "parse-names" : false, "suffix" : "" } ], "container-title" : "2The Economist", "id" : "ITEM-1", "issued" : { "date-parts" : [ [ "2012", "12" ] ] }, "title" : "The big picture", "type" : "article-magazine" }, "uris" : [ "http://www.mendeley.com/documents/?uuid=624d8e02-1716-40be-b144-7e1a950d284a" ] } ], "mendeley" : { "previouslyFormattedCitation" : "(Ward, 2012)" }, "properties" : { "noteIndex" : 0 }, "schema" : "https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json" }(Ward, 2012).Meanwhile in a recent report by The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and DevelopmentÂ (OECD), it was mentioned that obesity prevalence, has slowed for some countries, but it will continue to increase, though in a more modest rate. OECD accounts the slowdown of the epidemic to various legislation instituted by governments to support researches on obesity and policies for promoting healthy lifestyles. Through OECD`s report, one can already see the importance of the role of government support in order to combat obesity prevalence. Because government support requires corresponding budget to fund programs that p...
