Hi guys,

I'm just wondering if any of you have any advice on designing my first PhD study. My discipline is Psychology (though I have no prior Psychology experience and the approach is an interdisciplinary one).

My first study will likely be a broad survey of both fixed and free text entries.

Are there any particular texts you'd recommend on designing studies?

How long did it take you and what did you do?

Thanks guys :-)

Hi there,

So, I was wondering, is there any actually research out there on what defines a good interdisciplinary research strategy?

Obviously it's very specific from piece to piece, department to department, and combined backgrounds to combined backgrounds. But are there any 'best practices' of what is common across sound interdisciplinary research in different fields?

I see UKRI has published reports, but these seem quite abstract and political in nature. I'm after something more practical.

Thanks guys.
