I. Background
Suicide is among the significant causes of death for young adults. These deaths are primarily
related to the issues of mental that have been affecting young adults. Mental health is an
essential component contributing to the overall health of a person. Among young adults,
mental health is affected by many factors, including (but not limited to) social,
psychological, and biological factors. These factors are known to subject young adults to
mental health problems, especially in extreme cases. When discussing the determinants of
mental among young adults, pressure to conform with peers, the need to explore one's
sexual identity, increased use and access to technology, and desire to achieve greater
autonomy play a vital role.

I. Literature Review
1. Introduction
A. Overview
1. Increased access and use to technology influence mental health
2. Digital technologies influence the mental health of young adults. Jensen, M., Madeleine,
J. G., Russell, M. R., & Odgers, C. L. (2019). Young Adolescents' Digital Technology
Use and Mental Health Symptoms: Little Evidence of Longitudinal or Daily Linkages.

7(6), 1416–1433.https://doi.org/10.1177/2167702619859336
WEEK 3 ASSIGNMENT
3. This article gives a broad overview of the relationship between digital technologies and
the prevalence of mental health-related issues among young adults. Included in this
overview is a discussion on how the time spent in screen time can be used to do other
real-life cognitive and social enriching activities.
II. Theoretical Framework
A. The use of Social Media influences the mental health of young adults.
Glazzard, J., & Stones, S. (2019). Social Media and Young People's
Mental Health. Selected Topics in Child and Adolescent Mental Health.
http://doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.88569
B. This article acknowledges that the use of Social Media has an impact on
the mental health of young adults. Although some benefits are associated
with Social Media, the connections developed on the Social Media spaces
can expose young adults to some risks. According to the authors, such
potential risks includes cyberbullying, hurtful online comments,
intimidation by other online users, and threats. These risks are known to
significantly increase stress levels, depression, and anxiety which are
highly linked to mental health in young adults.
III. Overview of Literature
A. Desire to explore one's sexual identity influences mental health in young adults.
1. Sexual orientation and depression among young adults are highly linked.
2. Li, G., Pollitt, A. M., & Russell, S. T. (2016). Depression and sexual orientation
during young adulthood: Diversity among sexual minority subgroups and the role of

gender nonconformity. Archives of Sexual Behaviour, 45(3), 697-711.
http://dx.doi.org.proxy-library.ashford.edu/10.1007/s10508-015-0515-3
3. The authors of this article give an overview of how sexual minority groups have a
higher risk of suffering depression compared to other heterosexual counterparts.
Although there is limited understanding about the relationship between sexual
identity and the issue of mental health among young adults, the text establishes an
overview of how minority groups such as heterosexuals, bisexuals, gay men, and
lesbians undergo varying degrees of depression, which contributes to the poor state of
mental health.
B. Pressure to conform with peers influences mental health in young adults.
1. There is a relationship between adolescent peer relationship and mental health
disorders.
2. Long, E., Gardani, M., McCann, M., Sweeting, H., Tranmer, M., & Moore, L. (2020).
Mental Health Disorders and Adolescent Peer Relationship. Social, Science &
Medicine, 253, 1-8. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.socscimed.2020.112973.
3. The article's authors provide that adolescence as a stage is linked to the higher
vulnerability of mental health problems disorders. The authors argue that the
prevalence of mental health disorders among adolescents results from heightened
salience of relationships with other peers. Additionally, according to the authors of
this article, lack of friends or discrimination by other peers is also linked to mental
health disorders.
WEEK 3 ASSIGNMENT
C. The desire to achieve greater autonomy has been determined to influence mental health in
young adults.
1. There is a relationship between young people's desire for autonomy and psychological
well-being as they transition to adulthood.
2. Melendro, M., Campos, G., Eva, A. R.-B., & Arroyo, D. R. (2020). Young People's
Autonomy and Psychological Well-Being in the Transition to Adulthood: A Pathway
Analysis. Frontiers in Psychology, 11.
https://www.frontiersin.org/article/10.3389/fpsyg.2020.01946
3. The authors of this article give an overview of how young adults are faced with the
pressure of achieving greater autonomy as they transition to adulthood. According to this
article, factors such as education, social advantage, and employment determine how
young adults transition to adulthood hence defining their ability to achieve greater
autonomy. The authors also provide that most young adults are faced with unfamiliar
situations regarding education, employment, and social advantage, indicating that these
factors have a strong correlation with mental health.
Research Design and Methodology

WEEK 3 ASSIGNMENT
VII. Conclusions
A. Suicide is one of the leading causes of death among young adults. In most cases,
the affected individuals resort to self-harm and, when untreated, are likely to lead
to committing suicide. Mental illness can be treated; however, a significant
percentage of young adults suffer in silence. Qualitative studies provide historical
data collections that will be analyzed to determine a relationship between the
noted contributing factors and mental health. Thus, providing a rational
conclusion.

Evaluating an Early Draft of a Research Proposal
Review your proposal—or have a friend or colleague in your discipline check it—to be sure that your proposal exhibits none of the following characteristics
FOR ANY RESEARCH PROPOSAL
· The statement of the main problem (or question) is vague, or it is so obscured by discussions of other topics that it is impossible to find-
· The methodology is incompletely described; an explanation of exactly the research will be conducted is not specifically delineated.
· The proposed treatment of each subproblem is general and cursory; it does not convey clearly how the data will be used and interpreted to address the subproblem or the overall research problem.
· The proposal lacks sharpness. It is not logically organized. Without clear sections delineate the various aspects of the research project, it rambles. Readers have trouble isolating the discussion of the main research problem or question, the subproblems, the related literature, the methodology, the interpretation of the data, and other important parts of the proposal.
· The proposal uses words and phrases that are too general, ambiguous, or imprecise to be useful for evaluation. Without more clarification, such phrases as "tests will be given" and "statistical procedures will be conducted" are largely meaningless.
· The format of the proposal deviates from the guidelines set forth by the approval group or funding agency.
· Some cited sources do not appear in the reference list; alternatively, they are incompletely or incorrectly cited.
FOR A PROPOSAL TO A FUNDING AGENCY
· The problem does not address the research area outlined by the funding agency.
· The section of the proposal explaining the study's importance is not specific enough for the funding agency to see the study's relationship to the purpose for which a grant is requested.
· A clear and explicit budget statement outlining program expenditures is lacking, or the summary of estimated costs is ambiguous and indefinite.
· Items included in the budget are disallowed by the terms of the grant-
· The proposal is too ambitious for the grant money available.
