Hi

I am in the process of designing a questionnaire that should help me investigate some of the questions I have come up with. However, having obviously read the literature I am not sure if this work is actually contributing to the current arguements on the topic (Im finding this difficult to explain!). It is following up and continuing a trail of thought that was expressed by one author a few years ago and has since not been touch (I hear you grasp). I feel that my slant on this idea will make it more apealing. Do I sound (barking mad!!! lol) like it is something that should be investigated or given up to pursue the other topic (and follow like all the other sheep!!)

Cheers

so you want to explore a newish area...?? why not!!

Err- I don't think any of us will be really able to give you any advice on this. Have you asked your supervisor about his/her opinion?

Why was this trail of thought never picked up by anyone else? Has it been quoted by others?

Thanks for responses. I met with supervisor today. He likes the ideas but thinks I should approach in a different way. I guess that answers my question. Cheers
