Questionnaire for twins: IMPORTANT!

Hey guys! I'm in year 12 and am conducting a questionnaire for Society & Culture comparing twins to non-twins (singletons). This is for my PIP which makes up 40% of my end of year mark.

It'd be reallly good if some twins aged 12-18 could fill this out as I need lots to make my research more accurate in trying to dsicover "Will the process of social development be different for twins and singletons?"

Hey lozeeeeeee where are you from? I am also doing my PIP on twins, would be good to talk to another individual who is doing along the lines of the same topic

 

hey thanks for the reply!
im from sydney, like western suburbs area if you know where that is..

thats cool, whats the focus of your PIP? like, what specifically about twins are you researching?
need me to fill out any questionnaires or anything ?

 

What effects does being a twin have on the individual? Everyone talks about how close and connected twins are, is this always true? Does it affect identity?
Is the focus question to my PIP. What i want to research is comparing twins and the way it effects indivduality, the genetics linking to if twins are close and "connected" as viewed.

Sure but the three main areas of people who i need to survey are twins themselves, parents and teachers. Are you a twin??

So people know this persons PIP is complete it was due back in August so no point responding

 

I don't think people look at the dates before they reply. Probably because this forum gets so little traffic these threads end up staying near the top with somebody replying every few months.

I have seen people replying to surveys more than one year after it was supposed to have been finished.

 

I agree, it has happened to me before, like the other day a topic came up from 2007. u really have to check the dates. It would be nice for these Teen forums to have more activity

 

True indeed. Maybe one of the Mods could close them?

 

They do close them periodically but probably go by the date of the last post rather than the start date.

 

Fair enough!

The pip was a good experince looking back at it! I actually dont hate it anymore but am proud of what I did

 

Did u get a good result from it? How long was the assignment?

 

Yeah that sounds logical i guess never thought of it that way..

 

i would have filled the question are out even if it was over a year old.
i like reading replies.

 

I'll close it.

I never do these things, see the rules relating to posting these sorts of things.
