I am applying to PhD programme in Management. I've done litreview and wrote most part of the research proposal: why and what on the topic, research questions/hypotheses. But when it came to Research methodology section, I am not sure how far I should go. I wrote that I will use preliminary interviews, and survey questionnaire afterwards. Should I tell what questions I will ask, and whether I will develop my own instrument, or use someone else’s questionnaire to test hypotheses? How long should this section be in a proposal of 1000 words (3 pages)?

It's me again. Perhaps you know of any sources of information (websites, articles, etc.) that could help me in my search?

This may be helpful
