Question: How do the lunar ccles affect the moods of MU students?
Hypothesis: Our hypothesis is that there will be a direct cooralation between people's moods and lunar cycles.
Approach: Each member of our four person team will be responsible for interviewing 10 people per day in various locations on main campus for an entire lunar cycle. The interviews will take place between 6pm and 9pm. We choose this time frame because it was a convieniant consatant for our group and because people are usually more aware of their mood by that time. We will simultainiously be recording our moods, but keeping them seperate from the other data. The interview will consist of a written survey (see below). Once we have compiled the data we will look for patterns and make conclusions.
