HAAPINESS

1. Do you think these data collection tools are valid scientific tools? Why or Why not? (In research this is part of what is called validity)
In my opinion these collection data tools are valid as scientific tools because these facts come up by doing deep surveys. ALL the facts are thougrouly observed.
2. Do you think your results would be if you took the on-line questionnaire at a different time, on a different day? Why or why not? (In research this is part of what is called reliability
It depends on your mood. If u are happy you will get positive results but if u are not happy n frustrated or stressed by somthing that is going in ur life you will get negative result.
3. Which of the two tools is better to do with a large group of people (eg. university students, people living in cities versus rural locations, etc.) to discover patterns of happiness in a given population? Why do you think that one is better suited?
I think it is better to do with university students. because one can get variety of information from the students. we can come across with different opions about the happiness

GENDER OR CROSS CULTURE

According to me male n female show great difference in their way of talking and it varies from place to place.At some places its thought quite essential to talk bravely and sharply but at other places its taken against manners n traditions to talk like that.In Asian countries mostly there's shyness in girls n boys n they communicate very formally and for them its nearly shameful to see in each other's eyes while talking but in western countries these things are taken as confidence.In Asian countries people take time to feel at ease with each other but in other counties it happens opposite but it doesn't mean that they have different feelings.Feelings are same but only way of expressing them varies.Different cultures are true at their places and we can't deny any of them.

POPULATION OF PAKISTAN

It is estimated that the Pakistan's population will be over 180,000,000 by mid 2008. Pakistan had an estimated population of 169,300,000 as of July 2007,. During 1951-98, Pakistan's urban population expanded sevenfold. And by the next decade the population is expected to exceed 176 million.In the past, the country's population had a relatively high growth rate that has, however, been moderated by declining fertility and birth rates. Dramatic social changes have led to rapid urbanization and the emergence of megacities. During 1990-2003, Pakistan sustained its historical lead as the most urbanized nation in South Asia, with city dwellers making up 34% of its population.

Pakistan has a multicultural and multi ethical society and hosts one of the largest refugee populations in the world as well as a young population.

, Pakistan currently has population of 164.6 million which is expected to reach 304.7 million by the year 2050.
Even though there have been a number of support programmes dealing with family planning and reproductive health issues, there has not been significant impact. Our fertility rate has been stagnant at around 4.1 to 4.9 percent for last many decades. Contraceptive prevalence rate in Pakistan is only 28 percent.

MY BOOK PROJECT EXPERIENCE

When i came to know about the book project i felt that it wouldn't be much interesting but as soon as i started reading the book i got attracted to it and read every page with quite interest.I liked the presentation part most because it gave me chance to build confidence in myself.Group work gives chance of gaining n giving ideas and i really picked alot from it.Reading never bores me so i enjoyed the given task and I'll carry my interest of reading.i have gained many tips of project from this presentation.

According to my point of view it's not that difficult as some people think of learning English as a second language especially in mix culture.Students must adopt a positive attitude and must try to use English in their conversation in order to improve their command over speaking English.It's very important to pay attention to punctuation and spellings as well.Sentence structure also plays a vital role in creating good expression of writing.

English is my second language, as a fact that i have been studying it from childhood.In every field of life English is quite essential that's why my parents always wanted me to study it and with my own interest i followed my teachers and parents and tried to learn up this language as much as i could.Now I'm at such a stage that for me English seems equivalent to my mother language and i really prefer it.
