I'm writing up my official proposal for my reserach and my supervisors are being no help. They keep saying that the proposal will be easy and that I can be vague about details for further research but this doesn't sit well with me. I'm trying to write it up and it isnt easy. Our meetings have been rather vague. I try and be specific but I keep getting told that 'it'll all be ok and we can sort the details later'.
I'm getting to a point of not wanting to bother my supervisors and just put down what I think I should be doing. Specially as the proposal is due next week.
Hello Satchi
It's 1000 words and in the area of neuropsychology.
There are 4 sections to it and Im good for the research method, ethics and background. It's just the specific research questions that are an issue cause every time we discuss what Im doing, my supervisors suggest other areas or expansion or alternatives and seem really happy with it being vague.
I have a central study storted but there should be other further studies. Due to the nature of a year of collecting sample data we need to test everything on everyone. Thus it would be really useful to actually know what additional research is able to be done now rather than some vague future point.
