Sharpening your Point (Exercise 4.2)

In tonight's assignment we need to establish a tentative thesis based on the purpose of our topic: policy, interpretation, hypothesis, relationship, or value. The book provided us with templates to use for our thesis based on the questions we may be asking.
Template-Thesis from a Relationship Question: 
There is a (strong/weak) relationship between _________and ___________.

Example:
  • What is the relationship between photography as a therapy and phototherapy?
  • There is a weak relationship between photography as a therapy and phototherapy. Photography being used as a therapy is the actually act of one going out and taking the pictures himself, developing the pictures, editing, and admiring them. Phototherapy is done by a trained therapist. He or she uses photographs, either pictures from a magazine or from the family, to cue certain memories, allowing the person to focus on the emotional task at hand  which allows the surfacing of deep psychic material.
