Public Grooming
1.0 INTRODUCTION
People have always had this habit of publicly grooming themselves without bothering what other people might say about them. This kind of behavior has been very much evident in almost everybody that we became immune to it. We have lived with it for a long time that we don't even notice the fact that we are actually spending most of our time grooming ourselves, publicly.
1.1 Objective of the Experiment
This study aims to determine the effect of gender, age, and the time of the day on the behavior of public grooming.
1.2 Scope and Limitations
This experiment involved the students, teachers, and other people who pass by Melchor Hall and NEC. Since the subjects chosen were mostly from the College of Engineering, the result of this study does not represent the whole UP population. Therefore the result is not an accurate generalization of the entire UP population.
1.3 Significance of the Experiment
Through the results of this experiment we were able to explain how the three factors under study affect people's public grooming. We were also able to determine who are the people that has more tendency to groom themselves publicly.
1.4 Assumption
It was assumed that if a person looks at the one-way silver tinted glass for at least 5 seconds it is already considered grooming.
1.5 Methodology
A car with one-way silver tinted glass was parked between Melchor Hall and NEC. Data were collected twice a day, morning and afternoon, 30 minutes each for one week. People who looked at their reflection on the one-way glass for at least 5 seconds were counted, and those who did not were also noted to get the percentage of the observation. Data were then specified according to gender (male or female), age group (below 25, 25 to 40, or above 40), and the time of the day (morning or afternoon). The gathered data will be evaluated using the Three-Factor Analysis of Variance and Test of Hypothesis.
