Overview
For this assignment, you will provide a description of your data collection process, taking ethical standards into account. You will also describe the data analysis plan that you are proposing to answer your questions. Think of the data collection process as everything that participants will experience, or everything that you as the researcher will do to gather the data needed to answer your questions. This section should be very detailed, thorough, and provide enough information that anyone could conduct these procedures just by reading your descriptions.
Refer to the Virtual ResidencyLinks to an external site. Campus page for your PhD or Professional Doctorate program’s Project Plan Guide. Remember, the Project Plan helps you develop the details of your project. Your work will be viewed through multiple lenses, including those of instructors, peers, the existing literature, and others. You should seek opportunities to refine your work. As you deepen your understanding and add detail to your project, you should expect that you will make several revisions during and beyond this course. Doctoral project planning is an iterative process, with each revision often inspiring further revisions until all elements are aligned. These iterations are a necessary part of the doctoral journey.
Instructions
To finish the seventh and eighth sections of your Project Plan, consult the Project Plan Guides provided by your program for specific expectations for these sections. Be sure to update the reference list at the end as you add resources to support your project development.
Data Collection Process:
Explain each procedure involved in the collection of data to answer the questions.
Include each interaction with or condition presented to participants from the point of informed consent until the end of their involvement in the project. If your proposed methodology includes data collection prior to or without informed consent, explain each step from the beginning of data collection to the end. If your project includes presentation of conditions or variables to participants, explain what those conditions or variables will include. Justify all data collection procedures by explaining how they align with the questions, methodology, and measures as previously described.
Ethical Considerations:
Discuss ethical considerations addressing privacy, confidentiality, and data security based on the current plan. Potential ethical issues may arise based on the decisions you have made so far regarding participants, measures, sampling, and data collection procedures. Be sure to include any of these potential issues as needed. At a minimum, address privacy, confidentiality, and data security. Align ethical considerations with federal regulations, Capella University policies, and ethical research practices at Capella, along with any ethical codes or considerations specific to your field of study.
Describe each potential ethical issue, including the specific risks that may arise.
Explain how you will mitigate or prevent those risks from occurring.
If risk prevention or mitigation is not possible, justify why the project should occur and what can be done to resolve any problems that may arise.
Data Analysis Plan:
Describe a plan to analyze and present the data that will be collected so that questions are answered. As appropriate for the type of data and methodology, address data processing (coding, converting, statistical analysis) and data display (such as tables, graphs, or figures). Explain how each choice aligns with the methodology, data sources, and sample size that you are proposing.
