Select a research topic, generate testable hypotheses, review relevant literature, describe participant selection procedures, identify data collection methods, and describe the proposed quantitative research design.

Research Proposal

Throughout the next six weeks, plan and propose a quantitative research design of your choice, which may (or may not) involve an area of interest for your doctoral topic.

Select a research topic, generate testable hypotheses, review relevant literature, describe participant selection procedures, identify data collection methods, describe the proposed quantitative research design, address potential ethical problems, and describe limitations of your research proposal.

Drawing on your topic area, research questions, and hypothesis from Step One, develop a 5-6 page literature review, in addition to the Title Page and References Page, using between 5-7 scholarly resources, including mostly research studies related to your topic. Information should be drawn from scholarly sources (preferably within the past 10 years), such as professional journals, books, and topics.
