Transcribing interviews - it takes ages!
H

I used Express Scribe software and the Dragon Naturally Speaking software together. This made transcription much quicker, and cut the transcription time by half (3 hours of transcription for 1 hour of recording),

At what stage does your project stop changing?
H

I'm in my 3rd year and things are still changing, though not major modifications. I didn't find my research project until I reached 18 months in! Good luck, you will get there :)

Is a 20,000 word chapter too long?
H

Hi,

I have a written up a qualitative chapter and it is 20,000 words. I have reduced it as far as possible and tried to be as succinct as possible. I don't really want to remove any more sections from the findings.

Is a 20,000 word chapter OK?

Redoing Literature Review again and again
H

Have you done your studies? What type of a PhD are you doing?

If you haven't done your studies, I would wait until you have written up all your studies, then come back to the literature review. This way you will have a much better idea of what exactly needs to stay in the literature review, and what isn't that important.

I'm a reviewer, and we are given a window of 1 month to review. I always check it a week or a day before its due!

Its very unlikely your reviewwer even saw it, even if they did, who cares! They'll only judge you by your final!

Relax and honestly nothing to worry about at all :)

Bullet points in thesis
H

Hi,

I have been told by my supervisors that I should use bullet points in my thesis. For example, to summarize the key findings, I should use bullet points.

Is that OK?

I don't think a previous supervisor would be allowed to be an examiner.

Aged 20-34? Able to spare 10 minutes to complete an online survey in return for eternal gratitude?
H

May I ask which model you used to develop your questionnaire?

Online panel for survey - can it be representative?
H

I am thinking of using a company that has an online panel to recruit participants for a questionnaire study. Because the demographics (age, gender, region etc) of the entire population is known, they say that they can claim representativeness of the results as they can ensure the demographics of the sample matches the population. Does this sound right? (sample would be at 95% confidence levels with 5% confidence interval).
