or anyone who dress against the "NORM"
I am doing a sociology project. It's about how people often associated or generalize appearance with/to delinquency.
I am asking for four volunteers to take full body pictures of themselves and the cloths they are wearing. I will then ask these people to fill out a sheet about their personality and if they've ever commited a crime ...etc. No names will be used in the project, only subject numbers. (I'd appreciated if the participants were at least 15)
The reason I need REAL people and not people from magazines is so I can compare the true person with how the viewer sees the people in the pictures. They will be asked a number of questions based on the appearance and attire alone.
What I'd like is to make sure I get a variety of people from different "Sub-cultures" So, if anyone dresses "Goth", "thug/gangster", "hoochie", and possibly "professional/businessperson."
Hopefully through this project I will prove that many people still go off of generalizations and "the cover of the book".
I also be comparing the views of older generations with younger generations to hopefully show how these generalizations are changing.
If you'd like to be one of those used in the photos, please let me know. I am not looking for special or wild poses- just standing around and possibly with little emotion as possible. Or if one shows a smile- all will have to have smiles.
Thank You for your time in advance. Yi Min

Do we have to include head shots in the full-body picture, or can it just be from the neck down, etc?
If it can be from the neck down, then I'd like to volunteer. 3nodding

Edit: However, I'll run it pass my Prof. and see what he says about it. Perhaps he'll enlighten me. xd

Oh this is an interesting project and I wonder if i could find some pictures from when I was in high school because I had problems with this very issue. ROFL. With how I dress now I doubt it would get much response. I'll see if I can't dig something up for you.

Pirate Dirge Oh this is an interesting project and I wonder if i could find some pictures from when I was in high school because I had problems with this very issue. ROFL. With how I dress now I doubt it would get much response. I'll see if I can't dig something up for you. I will appreciate that. Please let me know by saturday. I will send whoever sends me photos a personal survey to fill out about how often you feel your are judged and a few other questions.
