Hello! Welcome back to my blog 🙂
For blog post #2, I had to pick 3 mini questions in order to further research my main one “How are values and beliefs developed?” The three that I picked include the following:
1. How are ones values and beliefs formed?
Finding an answer to how values and beliefs are formed will help me and my readers understand my main topic of values and beliefs further. As the idea is close to the main question. this will be one that can be answered through fast research and take me a long way in my research process. I also believe answering this question before the others will set a base for the whole inquiry project as a whole. Thanks to all the help of those who read my first post, I already have resources ready to start researching this question!
2. How do ones values and beliefs change depending on where ones brought up?
After understanding the main topic of values and beliefs, taking a deeper dive into it and how it affects our lives is what I would like to do. Values and beliefs are many times, dependant on what our childhood was like or inspired by who we spent our early days around. This is a known fact but what I would like to research is how and why is this? Is it because the younger we are the more those around can influence our thoughts? Is it because adults think rubbing ideas into kids is easier and they want us to grow up feeling a certain way about certain things? This is why I believe answering this mini question would help answer my main inquiry!
3. How are values and beliefs different? Why are they often grouped together?
This mini question also could be answered after understanding the main question. Values and beliefs are often grouped together but why? I honestly don’t have any assumptions as to why because they are quite different topics in my opinion. I think many people disagree and think they are similar which is why they group them together. I would like to find an answer to this question as it is something I have wondered for a while,
The 5 resources that could help me further research my project include the following:

Finding an answer to this question would help others who have similar questions as me regarding this topic find a clearer answer. I also believe that this is a topic that isn’t too deep and is easy to understand; therefore, more people might want to read up on it. I hope to interest other individuals in and around my community regarding this topic as it is something that I think is really interesting to talk about! Although it is not a question that might not affect many other than those who do have strong values and beliefs, I hope I am able to interest people to further learn about a topic that is much to my interest.
Thank you so much for reading my blog post on my research plan for this inquiry. I am really excited to research and share this project with you and look forward to having you join me on this journey! 🙂
