This methodology will attempt to utilize at least 200 infants that are six months of age or less and will be chosen at random and placed in a particular group. However, there may be some that are chosen that will refuse vaccination so therefore if a variable of more than 20%, this may cause more participants to be added to the study so that there will be enough participation. If this does occur, then the project may …show more content…

No control is needed as the validity of the outcome will not be affected it will only be prolonged. Third possible extraneous variable was the second questionnaire to be sent out after education is
