Conclusion:

Findings:
     Through a careful analysis of the research conducted, an assumption can be made that women and men do have different views towards communication when it comes to texting. The excerpts from the transcript were able to show a newer and more modern study, in relation to the research done by Susan Herring. Instead of men "flaming" through text, the term flaming is perceived in the sense of ignoring situations and conversations, because women might take more time and thought into what they say. According to Herring, the research conducted from the interview actually agrees to the research and point Herring made; men don't like when women "flame", which is exactly what the participant, S, did! The data analysis went into great detail to further this new research according to the different views men and women share with texting.

Interpretations:
     As I conducted this research, it would have been really useful to interview a male to get his actual side. Yes the transcript went into great detail about both sides, and was actually pretty good at not being biased, a better look at the "other side" would have been wonderful. However, a clear point was made from the research to relate to Herring, and that was fabulous. As nothing was proved, an assumption was definitely made that can further this research.
