Answer the following questions using a complete sentence that
justifies your answer.

1. Would you call Dr. O’Keefe’s study of his son, Jimmy, a case study,cross-sectional survey, longitudinal experiment, randomized clinical trial, spurious, or vivisection? Why?

2. Would you describe the subject(s) of the research in question1 as: genes, DNA markers, evolution, heteronormativity,non heteronormativity, one boy? Why?

3. What would be the principal ethical consideration of the study
described in question 1: socialist agenda, homophobia, heterophobia,
lack of anonymity?

4. How would you describe the role of DNA markers (8:20): constants, predictor variables, spurious variables, criterion variables, unethical procedures? Why?

5. How would you describe the role of the number of older brothers
(8:40): constant, measured independent variable, manipulated dependent variable, constant, criterion variable, spurious variable? Why?

15.Dr. O’Keefe claims that the evolutionary value of homosexuality is that it helps the population’s (and family’s) survival. Would you classify this conclusion as data observed in Dr. O’Keefe’s research on Jimmy or as an inference based upon data from various sources?
