1. Uwe na mtazamo wa kweli Watafiti wanaochunguza mahusiano ya rika katika ujana wanaweza kusema kwamba vikundi vya watu huonwa vibaya kwa sababu maoni ya kawaida huonyesha vikundi vya watu kuwa vyenye kudhuru vijana. Ungefafanuaje kikundi chako cha marafiki? Uanachama wako katika kikundi hiki ulikuathirije? 2. Uwezekano wa kupata Utafiti wa athari za ngono kwa vijana (kwa mfano, ngono, ngono ya mdomo, matumizi ya dawa za kuzuia mimba) katika viwango viwili vya Bronfenbrenner. Ni hatua gani zinazoweza kuchukuliwa kwa kutumia habari hii kupunguza shughuli za kingono na kuongeza mazoea ya ngono salama miongoni mwa matineja? 3. Uwe na mtazamo wa kweli Tazama mambo matatu yanayoathiri jinsi mtu anavyojiona na jinsi anavyojifahamu. Ni kwa njia gani mwingiliano na ushawishi wa muktadha, kama vile wazazi, wenzao, shule, jamii, na nguvu za jamii, huunda hisia ya ubinadamu inayoibuka ya vijana? Toa mifano maalum ya athari za ushawishi huu.
