Correspondingly, Chapter 9: Conclusion (1999) also relates to my narrative as they both discuss expectancies and the consequences of having robust expectations. In her literature, McCullough (1999) examines cross-racial friendships and the complexities of these relationships. Ideas raised in McCullough (1999) literature connect directly with my narrative, since they both encompass friendships between individuals from different cultural backgrounds. McCullough (1999) describes a friendship between an African American and Caucasian individual, while my narrative encompasses a friendship between Caucasian and Indian women. Also connecting our literatures is our examination of the intersections of race and gender and their impact on relationships.

They would also view people who didn’t participate as frightened

Introduction Psychological research and its findings have profound impact on people, relationships, and institutions in our society (Willig, 2013). However, as any other study, psychological researchers are faced with enormous limitations including inappropriate designs or methodologies due inadequacy of professionals (Wang, et al., 2015), geographical differences that impacts on generalizations (Smith, 2015), and time pressure that negatively affects the quality of a research (Punch, et al., 2014).
