What is a dissertation proposal? It’s a part of your project in which you give your readers an idea of how you see the development of your research through time. It’s very important to organize this chapter correctly because reviewers will judge by it on the value and goals of your project. This is why it’s very important to use samples of project proposals in the process of writing your psychology research.

What’s a Dissertation Proposal Sample

Let’s now see what a good proposal sample is and how you take advantage of it. Samples of psychology project proposals can come in different forms. Some of the samples you can find are simply pieces of other students’ works. They are real descriptions of other people’s projects, with their topics, goals, and expectations. Other samples are more like frameworks that help you build up your own one, adding your own details. Depending on the type of the sample, you will need to search in different places.

Where to Search for a Dissertation Proposal Sample

• If you’re looking for samples that are taken from other students’ psychology research projects, turn to your supervisor, libraries, and thesis writing services. These sources can provide you with samples of quite a high quality. Your supervisor can easily provide you with samples of other students’ works that are proofread, checked, and absolutely reliable. In the library of your own university or in virtual libraries of other universities, you can find a number of free works that can be very useful and helpful to you. When searching in libraries and online databases, use the help of librarians and available filters in order to get the samples that relate to psychology at once. Give a lot of attention to the academic formatting style you should use for your research. Samples that are finished in another style and dedicated to other subjects are practically useless to you.
• If you’re looking for a uniform sample that explains the way the proposal should be organized and formatted, try searching in online databases and writing labs. Such samples are often available in writing manuals that are meant to explain different formatting matters to people. You can directly search for such a manual or even several ones and then use all the recommendations that are listed there. You need to make sure that they match the academic writing style you have already chosen for your psychology research and that they belong to the latest edition.
