Research Reflection
Completing this research paper took a lot of time and effort. However, it was all worth it as it resulted in learning and obtaining many skills and information. In order to put this research paper together, I had to plan, organize, and prioritize the sections and the time to put into each, analyze quantitative data and obtain and process the information portrayed through them, demonstrate technical knowledge of displaying the data in tables through SPSS. In doing all of those tasks, I not only learned how to effectively carry out research but how to plan accordingly. This will be a significant factor in my future career as being a lawyer requires major time management skills in addition to the other identified tasks.
