- Please find three to five people to respond in writing or in an interview (if the latter, be sure you are prepared to record their answers).
- Summarize your findings by constructing an appropriate table(s) showing how people responded to the questions you asked.

Try also to indicate whether what you learned illustrates points made in your textbook.
