How to Design a Research Plan for a Thesis in Social Sciences
Abstract
This chapter presents the process of how a research work should be conceived in the mind of a novice researcher who wishes to do a doctoral thesis in social sciences. A logical-deductive scheme is followed, which guides the process of designing a research plan. The three most common mistakes made by novice researchers are emphasized. The first is starting the research without delimiting the subject and the object of study. The second mistake stems from the actual context in which initial decision-making is carried out without having received sufficient research training. The third mistake is to confuse key aspects such as the design and the structure of the document. This work provides keys to defining the initial plan by concisely explaining the parts of the design and their types and providing a basic outline of the structure of the written work.
