Budget: $15 – $25 USD
I need a 20-page PhD research paper in Political Science, focusing on Quantitative Research.
The Research Paper Guidelines
The length of the paper is about 20 pages for PhD students, excluding figures, tables, and references. (However, if you are serious about writing a research paper, then your paper should be roughly around 20-25 pages in double space in length, excluding figures, tables and references.) Your paper is expected to include at least 10 scholarly sources, and contain the following components or sections. You may choose to organize your paper using sub-headings for the following:
Abstract – one paragraph stating your research question, the type of information you examined, how you analyzed the data, and your findings.
Problem statement and research objective: why is your topic important? The problem state conveys a brief overview of the background/context of your research questions. Research objective should be specified. Your work will either provide an answer to explain the problems selected (to why question) and/or provide policy implications.
Literature review: You are supposed to do a proper literature review on publications on your research question, analyzing research trends (e.g., hot issues, unsolved problems) as evidences for your sufficient understanding on your research topic.
Data and method: What type of data/information will you use and how will you use them to answer the research question? For example, will your analysis consist of a quantitative review of related research or other relevant information? Or will your analysis be more qualitative? (Empirical work is preferred).
Analysis: Do your own analysis using proper methods.
Findings/Discussion: What is the ‘answer’ to your research question? Try to elaborate a bit on the ‘whys’ relating to your findings. This is the section to speculate a bit based on your findings through your research.
Conclusions/Policy implications: Simply reiterate your findings and offer suggestions for future research or fur better policy in your topic area.
