In this reflexion, I want to emphasize on how retrograde amnesia can affect the behavior of a five years old child?. I was also thinking what if this 5 years old child is my son and had been given a strong blow to the head that prevents him to remember anything before the accident.
1. How would you begin the process of Recovering your memory? Who would you turn to, Where would you search, and how would you proceed?
First, I would go to a doctor to know what could be the side effects of the medicine. On the other hand, I would seek support on my wife and my family in order to help my son remember some experience before the accident because we represent the closest link to the child. finally, I would consult with a psychologist in order to find the correct way to provide my son mental stability because I would not like that the child will suffer psychological problems after the accident.
2. Please describe the emotional journey you imagine you Would Be Going Through Attempt to reconstruct as you your life. Imagine the feelings You Would have.
It would be a huge emotional pain to me, to see my son going through that difficult situation, in which he can not remember any experience of his short life a child. This situation would be so much easier if I would present these types of symptoms but a child does not have sufficient maturity and knowledge to confront this kind situation. A 5 year old kid does not have sufficient mental development to know what happened? Why is this happening? and how he could solve the problem? without the support of an adult.
3. Suppose You Were Able to pick and choose the memories you wanted to recover from your life. What types of memories would you choose to Retain and what types of memories Might you decide to edit out of your experience Remembered? Positive, negative, painful, happy, angry, frightened, and so on. Please Elaborate and Explain your decision making process Some.
If I could pick and choose the memories to recover information about his life, definitely I would choose memories of his early childhood where he can recognize who is the mother and the father. Earliest maternal and paternal memories can produce larges positives effects in the behavior of a child.

1. How would you begin the process of recovering your memory? Who would you turn to, where would you search, and how would you proceed?
First of all, I would follow the medication step by step to try to recover the leaked memory before the accident. Second I would find help and support from my family because no one knows more about my life as they do. Also I would try to find information by consulting with friends, photos or any kind of material that could remind me any event of my life before the accident.
2. Please describe the emotional journey you imagine you would be going through as you attempt to reconstruct your life. Imagine the feelings you would have.
It would be a very difficult time for me, honestly I do not know how to face or react to that kind of situation, however, I would be forced to find the way to rebuild my past life.
3. Suppose you were able to pick and choose the memories you wanted to recover from your life. What types of memories would you choose to retain and what types of memories might you decide to edit out of your remembered experience? Positive, negative, painful, happy, angry, frightened, etc. Please elaborate and explain some your decision making process.
If I could pick or choose the memories of my life, definitely I could choose positive memories that make me feel happy and confident. Memories that make me think of my family or friends in order avoid the negative aspects that one accident like this can produce.

- What area of interest/research question do you wish to explore through a research study design?
I want to know how retrograde amnesia could affect the mind of a 5 year child.
- What variables or concepts are you looking to observe and/or manipulate?
I want to observe how the mental information of the child could be affected by this type of amnesia.
- What type of design would best suit your research question? (Experimental, Correlational, etc)
Experimental design would be the best option.
- What research method would you use to conduct your experiment? (Survey, case study, naturalistic observation, lab experiment, etc.)
I would like to use case study to observe the child behavior.
- Give a hypothesis about what you think you might find.
Because the retrograde amnesia produces a loss of information that was learned before an injury, I would like to find if a 5 year old kid could accept and overcome this memory impediment after the injury.
- What might be the benefits and implications of this study? In other words, who would gain from it?
The benefit of this case is understand how difficult would be this kind of trauma for a kid who can not remember his past and how parents and family could help him to accept and overcome the problem.
- Please reflect on the process of designing this experiment. What were the challenges you faced? Was this more/less difficult than you expected? How?
I saw a tv program about retrograde amnesia, I found it really intersting and also te tv show had relation to this class. I faced a challenge when I was watching the program because it was hard to understand, however, at the end of the program I was really interested on the topic.

- What area of interest/research question do you wish to explore through a research study design?
I want to know if student athletes perform better in class than normal students.
- What variables or concepts are you looking to observe and/or manipulate?
I want to look the students performance in class by the two groups.
- What type of design would best suit your research question? (Experimental, Correlational, etc)
Correlational would be the best option.
- What research method would you use to conduct your experiment? (Survey, case study, naturalistic observation, lab experiment, etc.)
I would like to use case study to observe the individuals of both groups of students.
- Give a hypothesis about what you think you might find.
I think that normal students perform better in class because they are more determinated on what they want to do in college. On the other hand, some students athletes go to college just because they want to get scholarships for play, so they neglect their classes because of the sports.
- What might be the benefits and implications of this study? In other words, who would gain from it?
The benefit of this case would be acknowledge. Students athletes have to recognize that sometimes perform good in class is more important that play sports.
- Please reflect on the process of designing this experiment. What were the challenges you faced? Was this more/less difficult than you expected? How?
it was not difficult for me. I tried to compared my experiences as a college baseball player with my friends and I found out that they perform better in class than me and others students athletes.

A lot of students do not sleep well because they have to study overnight, so it will encourage to have lower grades than students that can get adequate rest. I think that the research is good because you try to focus on how shcool grades could decrease due to lack of rest, which is one the current problems in college performance today."
posted on Oct 10, 2011, on the post Performance on exams: study overnight or have a good night sleep?"I think is a very good research because sometimes students do not know to set priorities between their college carreers and personal relashionships. From my ponit of view, being married or having children are great resposnabilities that must be taken into account and often this relationships could affect academic perfomances.
I do not say that have a relationship is bad or not correct, what is try to say is that college students should set priorities as you said in your reflexion."

Sometiemes graffities look ugly or out of place is some cities, countries etc, however, societies have to understand that graffiti represents a human desire and one way of creative communication as you said."

I am part of the Baruch baseball team, so I have to work out everyday to be in shape but I did not know that workouts would infact help relieve stress which is very important in students athletes."

I am from South America also and is very confortable to find a good connection with people with the same culture. For me, your interaction with the kids as a coach is relly intersting as well, because I like the sports. See you in class man."
