Phase 2, Post #8: Research Problem

What is your research question or research problem?

My research question currently is: “How can we encourage mentally depressed youth to develop self-confidence?”

Why is this a significant, important, or relevant question or problem?

As we continue to move farther into the 21 century, the rates of depression are rising, especially in the teenager to young adult age demographic. With the increase in depression rates, comes an increase in suicide rates. 

How are diversity and/or inclusion related to this issue?

Depression can be dealt with if one is able to afford to see a psychiatrist. This means that poorer people will not be able to afford help. This can lead to these victims causing self- harm or even suicide.
