RJA #3a: Research Topic Exploration–
Right now I have been trying to get a basic idea of the backround knowledge of SIDS and the history of it. I found a website that is pretty much the "official" website for SIDS where I will be able to document a lot of informational facts on the topic. I put this in my Delicious account and it is SIDS.org I also liked looking at Wikipedia because I know with Wikipedia that many people can post and put their input into the topic and it gives me a feel for what others think and are saying about SIDS. I also found a website for SIDSfamilies.com, which made me very sad. I think this website will help me to understand not only how many people have to face this tragidy but also what these families go through and how they cope. I think this will help give my research a more personal feel without it being my opinion.
RJA #3b: Research Topic Focus–
Brainstorming with myself and my boyfriend and mom and sister here are some of the arguments that came up. One, is SIDS something that can be cured? And by saying cured, is SIDS a disease. Can it be prevented? Will taking loose blankets, stuffed animals etc. out of cribs truly prevent a baby from dying from SIDS? Is this something in a childs genetics and does it run in families or certain races of any sorts? I mainly want my research to show backround knowledge and where in the future the studying of SIDS can take us and help lower the rate of SIDS.
RJA #3c: Research Question–
What are the different statistics on SIDS
WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF SIDS?
What amount of research and time has been put into SIDS?
Are their pre conditions to SIDS?
Do babies show any signs or do they always appear to be healthy babies?
Can their be a screening for babies to check for SIDS
Do more than just the "parent" community get involved with SIDS?
Does SIDS affect babies around the world in same average numbers?
