sociology paper on obesity 2 3 pages

Sociology paper. 3 pages.

Prompt:

Is obesity contagious? Could it diffuse from friend to friend? How would you design a study to find out? Answer these questions drawing especially upon materials from classes 8–11, 16–17 and 20–22. (8-10 are attached, I will attach the rest in the chat) Take a position, i.e., put forward your hypothesis, develop your argument, which should be the first half of your assignment and then, turn to a study design which you think could prove or disprove what you hypothesized. Be realistic when setting up your design, and discuss ethical concerns if any with the proposed study. Max 3 pages, including figures/tables, references.
