Research that Benefits Children and Families - Uplifting Stories

My undergraduate project involved a research project based on schedules and routines.  Through the research that I did, I hypothesized that participants that anticipated a routine and were not able to keep the expected routine would score lower on a memory task and be more likely to dislike the activity.  I was unable to use children on the project, so used college students.  What I found was that a lack of routine, or an expected routine not kept, did not affect the memory task but did give me statistically significant results in dislike of the activity.  Those participants whose expected routine of actvities was not followed indicated they did not like the activty.  Those whose routine was followed indicated they did like the activity.  I would like to have been able to generalize the results to children, but it wasn't possible.  The risks would have been low, so I would like to be able to do the same project using children of different ages.
