Research Papers / Struggling with/unsure about research paper based on social anxiety/phobia [2]

Hello.

I am interested in using social phobia/anxiety as the main focus of my paper, but I am completely clueless as to what my research question and hypothesis should be.

I was thinking about focusing on the negative (or positive?) effects online social networking (or the internet in general?) has on social anxiety. I was told this might be an interesting topic but it lacked refinement. That is what I am struggling with - to refine it, and I am also beginning to kind of have seconds thoughts about this topic as a whole because I am having a hard time finding suitable material to use.

I don't know what else I can write about, and I am running out of time (I have a midterm presentation coming up)!

Here is the description of the final paper:

1,800 - 2,500 words, not including the works cited page.
Approximately eight to ten pages typed.
Double spaced.
One-inch margins all around.
A minimum of eight sources must be cited, a minimum of six being books and scholarly articles.

I would greatly appreciate your help.
