Topics for a research task I have a huge research task. I need to come up with a research topic idea. It can be about anything so not a specific subject. I'd like to do something on the physiology side something like "a serial killers mind" or "the pressures of being a twin" or something to that extent.

I'm not sure if this will fit your project but it is in line with a psychology question.
There are just a few professions were one is asked why you chose to do this. One of them is fire fighting. While I was never a career fire fighter I have over 30 years experience as a volunteer with several different departments from small one station departments to the last one I retired from with over 50 stations with 50%^ of them all or partial volunteer stations.
If you ask any of us why we do this you will get a host of different answers. For the most part we are adrenalin junkies but adrenalin alone does not make you run towards something everyone else is running away from.
There are some that do it for the money as the money is good especially for the career firefighter. In most departments you work 2/24 hour shifts a week which allows you to have a second job or run your own business on the side.
Most of us cannot tell you exactly why we do this job we just do it because we are able to do it. My son is also a firefighter/paramedic. He saves lives on both sides of his career title. If you ask him why how won't say its because he wants to save lives. That is not the reason he joined as a volunteer when he turned 18.
As far as I know no one has attempt to research why some people pick dangerous careers. ]
