Hi everyone,

I'm currently enrolled in a professional doctorate and have decided to transfer to a PhD. As part of this process, I need to modify my existing study to make it appropriate for a PhD study. I'm thinking of changing the research methods to make them more 'complex'.

At the moment, I'm doing a qualitative study using focus groups, observation, and Photovoice. I'm using Symbolic interactionism and Impression Management as my theoretical framework.

Any ideas or suggestions on how the study can essentially be enhanced to be appropriate for a PhD study would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
