Poster Presentation Elevator Pitch

have you ever wanted to call someone daddy? I’m kaylee storms and, i’ve come to research the question: how do early onset absent fathers affect the decision-making of how young adult daughters with anxious attachment styles choose their male romantic partners to gain security? (the reading of the question should have the most emphasis and varied pacing…then, after, I think a brief explanation of the question as it is a very long question and you’ll lose listeners…so think about breaking down each part)

have you ever wanted to call someone daddy? i’m kaylee storms and i’ve come tot research the question: how do early onset absent fathers affect the decision-making of hope young adult daughters with anxious attachment styles choose their male romantic partners to gain security? long question, i know, i run out of breath saying it. but basically, i will be finding the effects of father absence on their daughters relationships.

the most crucial years of a child’s development are in early childhood, which are the first eight years of the child’s life. the absence of a father in a daughter’s life can determine their psychological mindset in their romantic relationships as young adults, specifically ages 18-26. (can you simplify the previous sentence? why young adults? because that’s the gap, right? then maybe say that?)

the most crucial years of a child’s life are in early childhood, which are the first eight years of the child’s life. absent fathers can have a big effect on our developing minds, and this research aims to focus on specifically their daughters who are between the ages of 18 and 26 due to the gap in research.

This situation affects 1 in 4 children in the US, meaning it’s very prominent and its effects are largely impactful. (do you need to say largely impactful?? Maybe just emphasize the stat…wow, what a stat!!)

this situation affects 1 in 4 children in the US, that’s like literally 18.4 million of them which is crazy considering the lack of research that has been done.

the absence of a father in a daughter’s life can determine their anxious attachment style in their romantic relationships as young adults. attachment styles are how a child emotionally and socially develop due to their caregivers. (whoa, you mention AAS and then follow with zero definition? can we get some sort of casual explanation??)

the absence of a father in a daughter’s life can determine their anxious attachment style in their romantic relationships as young adults, where anxious attachment styles basically mean

the decision-making of those relationships will be affected by this, to try and succeed in gaining the security they long for, and even more so when it is early-onset absent fathers, or fathers, regardless of biology, absent from birth to five years old. (you’ve got to simplify this massive sentence…so much in here but you are plowing through it. slow down and break this into chunks in order to explain.)

There has been a lot of research done on traditional familial relationships, however, it was not until recently that father-daughter relationships were explored, and even less where the father is absent. (good sentence)

There is also a lack of research pertaining to absent fathers causing anxious attachment styles which is a type of attachment style that makes the person feel unsafe in their relationships.(you are gonna need to explain attachment styles…what even is that? kids will have no idea)

I hope in my research to fill the gap of how this lack of relationship affects the daughter as a young adult in her romantic relationships. To do this, I will use a correlational research method which is basically just finding the relationships between these two variables. (a correlational method is basically just….explain casually)

using a chart for each factor, the factors are age, daddy complex, and length of relationship. i will find a minimum of two sources for each part i will be correlating: the factor and absent father, and the factor and AAS. for instance, i will correlate age and absent fathers and age and AAS. this chart is broken up into 4 parts, the source, the data, the gap, and how i will use it in my research to find my conclusion. the key terms in my research are daddy complex- men like their fathers (trying to fill a void, or fall into similar patterns), security- the state of feeling safe, stable, and free from fear or anxiety, age gap relationships- determined by over twice your age, minus 7, short term relationships- focus on the present instead of the future, no continuous commitment, and promiscuity- possessing or being marked by a large number of fleeting sexual relationships. (this is the most important part of the speech and you’ve got to simplify it. For instance, no need to say “research chart” and just say “chart” or even “simple chart”.

i will find a minimum of two sources for each part i will be correlating: the factor and absent father, and the factor and AAS. (say “for instance…” an example.)

it is broken up into 4 parts, the source, the data, the gap, and how i will synthesize it in my research to find my conclusion. (I am unclear about this sentence clarify it please.

then i can figure out if/how the daughters with AAS caused by absent fathers choose their male romantic partners. so, if you answered yes, ask yourself this: do you know why you wanna call them daddy? (like you say “this will allow me to”…who says that?)

have you ever wanted to call someone daddy? i’m kaylee storms and my topic will talk about girls without dads and who they date. my specific research question is: how do early onset absent fathers affect the decision-making of hope young adult daughters with anxious attachment styles choose their male romantic partners to gain security? long question, i know, i run out of breath saying it. but basically, i will be finding the effects of father absence on their daughters relationships. the most crucial years of a child’s life are in early childhood, which are the first eight years of the child’s life. absent fathers can have a big effect on our developing minds, and this research aims to focus on specifically their daughters who are between the ages of 18 and 26 due to the gap in research. this situation affects 1 in 4 children in the US, that’s like literally 18.4 million of them which is crazy considering the lack of research that has been done. the absence of a father in a daughter’s life can determine their anxious attachment style in their romantic relationships as young adults, where anxious attachment styles basically mean that they don’t have the most secure, stable, healthy and lasting relationships. the decision-making of those relationships will be affected by this to try and succeed in gaining the security they long for. even more so when it is early-onset absent fathers. realy onset absent fathers are fathers, regardless of biology, absent from birth to five years old. There has been a lot of research done on traditional familial relationships, however, it was not until recently that father-daughter relationships were explored, and even less where the father is absent. There is also a lack of research pertaining to absent fathers causing anxious attachment styles which is a type of attachment style that makes the person feel unsafe in their relationships. I hope in my research to fill the gap of how this lack of relationship affects the daughter as a young adult in her romantic relationships. the factors that i believe are affected are age of the partner, daddy complex, and length of relationship. the key terms in my research are daddy complex- men like their fathers (trying to fill a void, or fall into similar patterns), security- the state of feeling safe, stable, and free from fear or anxiety, age gap relationships- determined by over twice your age, minus 7, short term relationships- focus on the present instead of the future, no continuous commitment, and promiscuity- possessing or being marked by a large number of fleeting sexual relationships. then i can figure out if/how the daughters with AAS caused by absent fathers choose their male romantic partners. so, if you answered yes, ask yourself this: do you know why you wanna call them daddy?
