An important component of your dissertation is the methodology chosen. Discuss the topic that you are selecting for your dissertation. Locate one article in a peer reviewed journal that closely relates to your topic. Describe the method used, the sample, the population chosen, was there a survey involved in a quantitative study, or a set of questions asked as in a qualitative study. Finally, can you identify the problem the researcher(s) tried to examine?
