For these products, I used Google Forms to create a survey with at least five questions to collect some data from my peers. My questions were about the topic of social media, which I was able to collect both quantitative and qualitative data for. I created a hypothesis that the more social networks one is signed up for, the more negatively that person would feel social media affects his or her life. After collecting my data, I downloaded the Excel document that contained my data and I analyzed them. I made the decision to reject my hypothesis since the individuals who responded their lives are negatively affected by social media had signed up for less social networks than those who responded positively affected.
