Testing the Hypothesis Part 2

This assignment was harder than I thought it would be. Finding several people that were outside the boundaries of my opportunity was very difficult. As you know almost everyone at this school uses alarm clocks. Most of the people I interviewed were adults that had either retired or just did not work.

The who. Like I said before these people that fall outside the boundaries are not your average civilian. They are those that have finished contributing to society and those who lack the ability to. I am talking about people without jobs and some without any responsibility. I am not saying that only those who use alarm clocks have a responsibility just that they have at least the responsibility of having to be somewhere at a certain time. I mostly interviewed elderly people those who have retired. In my conversations with them, every single one of them had used an alarm clock before. Now they say they do not use them simply because they do not have too. Also, most of them go to bed early and therefore wake up early. One said that he takes his hearing aid off to go to sleep so he wouldn't even hear an alarm if it went off (I found this man very amusing).

The what. It took me some time to get good feedback from this one but after a lot of brainstorming, I found an answer. I realized that my need was not to wake up in the morning it was more of the way someone wakes up. Alarms can be harmful to the heart and create stress for our bodies and minds. That is the true what. It isn't the alarms, it is the noise they produce and how they startle you awake.

The why. The why for the outsider is simply that they do not have the need to wake up at a certain time. The need is simply not there like it is for your average working individual. 

Inside the Boundary	Outside the Boundary
Those with the need to wake up at certain times	Those who have no commitment to time
A better way to wake up	Needing to wake up early
Because alarm clocks are not good	Because it works for some people
