You wrote a paper at the post-secondary level involving research, and are looking for ONE REFERENCE?

Have I walked into a rabbit hole? Is this a serious post? How can you design a proper research tool such as a questionaire without knowing how to do a literature search?

Go to the school library. Ask to speak with a librarian. Explain to them the nature of your experiment, and ask if they can assist you in finding supporting literature.

You have put the cart before the horse here, but being in College, you know that. You should have created a hypothesis, done a literature search, and then designed your questionaire.

BTW, I have never been asked for ONE REFERENCE in my life (well, maybe grade 4, during the book report phase of reading class). Who would ask for ONE REFERENCE, and more importantly, why?
