Spatial Profiling: Hiring Inhibitors in Females Attaining Administration Positions In Institutions Of Higher Learning

Hi,
The assignment was already written but I need it rewritten so that it is exceptional based on the professors suggestions and using your research skills to build this up so that I receive an A. Follow all her instructions( that may required moving some information around and adding literature to strengthen argument etc)

Follow the Format (including section length or as indicated here) of the 2018 Prospectus Guide: You MUST complete ALL sections. Following are some tips on how to check your submission.

Entire document is double-spaced, 12 pt. Maximum Length is 10 pages (not counting Cover Page and Reference Page).

Writing issues that will detract from the quality of your submission:
Submission is NOT clear, concise, and aligned both within and among each section
You use “direct quotes”
Your Title is a question

Research issues that will detract from the quality of your submission:
Articles are too old (more than 5 years)
Fail to use original author’s work (avoid citing someone else’s interpretation of a study; i.e., as cited by…).

Use the Prospectus Word Template to address:

Problem statement
NO MORE THAN ONE PAGE (about 240-250 words).

a specific, focused/narrow research problem –what is NOT known about the social problem (your topic/passion) you are interested
followed by an evidence/data/impact statement supported by current peer-reviewed source, that identifies the significance of the problem (who is impacted, how many are hurt, what is the unacceptable outcome/consequences of the unknown).
at least five current, (no more than 5 years old), peer-reviewed references
a gap (the data researchers need to address the research problem)
what your study will contribute to the discipline)

Purpose
Make the connection between the research problem and gap
Quantitative studies, describe two or more factors (variables) and relation to the identified gap or problem.
Qualitative studies, describe the need for increased understanding about the based on the identified gap or problem.
In mixed-methods studies, clarify how the two approaches will be used together to inform the study.
Significance
How this study will contribute to filling the gap – original contribution
Answer the So what? question
How might the potential findings lead to positive social change

Background
a list format (no more than one-two sentence description)
numbered in alphabetical order
maximum number of background articles – 10

Theory
One-two paragraphs max
name of theory, author and date
short description of tenets and how those tenets relate to the research problem and questions

Research question
Include just the overarching research question, not interview guide/survey sub questions.

If you are using a mixed method you must have both qualitative and quantitative questions; include your hypothesis with each quantitative question.
Be sure the independent and dependent variable (quantitative) match what you have in the gap statement.
Explain how the qualitative question is needed and relates to the later quantitative data

The Nature of the Study
One-page

Design and Methodology
Population
Sampling technique and size/estimated saturation point (and source for your decision)
Instrument for data collection (e.g., interview guide for qualitative, survey/questionnaire for quantitative)
Data analysis technique (be specific, identify the coding technique you are proposing for qualitative, the specific analytical tool for quantitative)

Possible Types & Sources of Data
Bullet format

What type of data do you anticipate (e.g., primary – opinions, perceptions, ratings given on your Likert scale/survey, secondary – raw data, information on how many, how often, demographics, numerical, etc.) needing to answer research questions
Source – Primary (researcher collects directly from target audience interviews, focus groups, direct observation, survey, questionnaires, etc.).
Source – Secondary (researcher uses existing data that has already been collected, scores, raw data, historical records, databases, previously published, etc.) Be sure to identify the variables you propose to get from the source).

Limitations, Challenges, and/or Barriers
One Paragraph
Access to Secondary data (public, private, purchase, permission, etc.)
Recruitment (Primary data) – (access, ethical issues, confidentiality, anonymity, permission, cost, IRB, etc.)
