Concept Paper

This first report will tell me what your Group proposed research question will be, what type of research design you propose to use and why. In the concept paper, you also need to provide a listing of all the variables you propose to measure in your study, along with conceptual definitions. In addition, you need to explain how you propose to collect data (Primary or secondary
source).

We are trying to find a correlation between the apprehensions along the US/ Mexico border and what causes any spikes to arise given certain times of the year or any world events that occur. I am unsure what variables to use and am asking for help creating or describing these variables. Here are some useful websites that include statistical information.
