Abstract
In this research titled, Who Do You Think You Are Talking To?: How Self-Censorship affects the Writing Process and Ethical Consideration of Student Writers, I am examining the relationship between student perceptions of self-censorship and how it may or may not alter how they write. In my initial research, I was able to learn about historical censorship and academic freedom while also researching counterarguments for self-censorship. Another study that I came across in my research was a broader version of my own study that focused on the general perception of self-censorship in the United States. My research was completed using a survey of college students at any level of education with a variety of majors. The purpose of the research is to lead to a better understanding of how students think of self-censorship and what, if anything, needs to change with education regarding that topic.
