Research Proposal #1


Topic:

This research proposal suggests research on how the level of self-disclosure effects the degree of relationship satisfaction.

Review of Literature:

Guerrero & Afifi (1995) conducted a study to examine topic avoidance and self-disclosure in family relationships. They found that males reported avoiding discussion of relationship issues more than females did. As Martin&Anderson(1995)sought to examine the motives behind self-disclosure in father-young adult relationships and the resulting level of relationship satisfaction, their study found that young adults seem to model their self-disclosure after their fathers' self-disclosure. Pegalis, Shaffer, Bazzini, & Greenier (1994) examined the generality of the opener effect to males and females across different situational contexts. They found that both genders disclosed more and longer to high openers than to low openers across the different contexts, Leaper, Carson, Baker, Holliday, & Myers (1995) used both same- and opposite-sex dyads in order to examine the relationship between listener verbal support and self-disclosure among friends. They found that females tended to be more responsive and supportive than males during discussions in both same- and cross-gender friendships. However, it was also found that men made more disclosing comments than did women, indicating that it is possible for males to disclose as much as females. They also found that imbalances in self-disclosure and verbal support are related to relationship dissatisfaction.

Drawing on these findings, it could be possible to anticipate that individuals who have similar patterns of self-disclosure would have higher degrees of relationship satisfaction. Continued research may further explore what other factors affect the degree of relationship satisfaction.

Research Question:

What effect does the level of self-disclosure have on the degree of relationship satisfaction?

Hypothesis:

Individuals who experience similar levels of self-disclosure will be more likely to have higher degrees of relationship satisfaction.

Method:

In congruence with the previous study conducted by Martin & Anderson (I 995), a design involving approximately 200 undergraduate students, I 00 male and I 00 female will be used. They will complete questionnaires consisting of measures of self-disclosure and communication satisfaction. They will also be given a questionnaire to have their significant others complete. This questionnaire will include the same measures. Participants will be informed that this research study focuses on self-disclosure and levels of relationship satisfaction, participation is voluntary, and their responses will be kept confidential. A self-addressed envelope will be enclosed to assist in confidentiality.

Participants will complete the Self-Disclosure Scale (SDS) and the Communication Satisfaction Scale (CSS). Their responses will be compared with those of their partner's in order to assess the similarities between the pair's levels of self-disclosure to each other and their degree of relationship satisfaction.

Participants will also be given a second questionnaire, which will ask them to assess what they believe to be their partners' level of self-disclosure and degree of relationship satisfaction. These responses will also be compared to examine whether individuals' self-reports of their levels of disclosure and satisfaction match up with what their partners believe their levels to be.

Predictions:

In response to the study done by Martin & Anderson (I 995), it should become clear that the amount of self-disclosure that occurs between individuals affects the relational satisfaction that is felt by both parties. Leaper et al. (1995) found that imbalances in self-disclosure and verbal support are related to relationship dissatisfaction. This would seem to indicate that the opposite would be true, as well. So, it may be found that individuals who experience similar levels of self-disclosure will have higher degrees of relationship satisfaction.

A possible problem using the methods chosen is that self-report may not be entirely accurate. People may not truthfully portray their levels of self-disclosure and relational satisfaction. However, through the use of confidentiality and the second questionnaire that asks the partners to assess each other's levels, it is hoped that the potential for this problem may be decreased.

不过要说明一句，这个真的只是一个样本。从长度来说实在太短了，至少4页的正文（即不包括书目）。如果申请博士，十几页是至少的。

提供一个有样本的URLhttp://ec.hku.hk/acadgrammar/report/ResProposal/WritingProposal.htm

能不能拿以前发表的论文呢？

烈火坚冰UID: 114508

我找东西抄才抄了12页啊
打了将近三四天才打完（一边聊天一边写，嘿嘿）
给另外一个老师的research proposal才两页半
因为我看网站上他自己的研究计划也就一页多
其实写多了他们也不一定看得吧

我的妈啊，我怎么写的出来啊??????还要写那么多,晕死了,能不能去网上找些抄上啊

paisleyUID: 64183

我晕菜，敢情你们都写的这么随便啊？天知道我为我的RP花了多少心血。RP的重要性绝对不在PS之下，怎么这么随便的说？想不通。。。

写多了可能是不看的，所以通常长的RP有一个4-5页的简写本，如果他对你的简写本感兴趣的话，一般会去看长的。

烈火坚冰，你的情况，好奇怪啊。我还到网上看见一个地质学的老师给他的RP做了整整一个望站啊。

以前发表的论文那是writing sample啊。RP是以后要研究的东西，当然如果你以前写的东西觉得当时还没有研究够，希望以后再做深入研究的话，也完全可以拿来做RP。但是内容和形式都不太一样了。

elvenUID: 107633

我一个小本怎么写的出来RP啊？？？我还没真正自己去研究过东西，连方向都还没确定，RP是申请什么用的啊？？？

lucshUID: 120179

it seems that there is no need to write up a research proposal too long.

paisleyUID: 64183

RP的详情请见文摘区和精华区。

小本没有关系的。而且你现在写的RP未必是你读研究生以后要研究的东西。对方是要看你通过这个RP显示出来的研究潜力和能力。找个问题研究就好。

还有关于长短问题，我还是澄清一下，免得大家太担心了。各个学校要求不同，不过我上面所说的长度，港大确实是要求这样的。其他学校可以短一点的，也许。而且申请硕士的要求比较低。另外还有个凑页数的方法：就是把字体设置成双倍行距拉。

以上说的只代表我个人所知道的信息。先申明！所以，如果还有人有这方面的消息，欢迎多多分享啊。lusch如果你有比较明确的消息，可以告诉大家吗？谢谢先：）

谢谢paisley
可是教授和我说的是,RP要针对某一位老师的研究写,这样他才有可能要你.
还有,那里能有理科的RP样本呀?

huangjn73UID: 120636

RP不一定需要很长,不同的学校或不同的院系有不同的要求,可以到网上先查一下要求再说. 有的只要几百字的提纲即可.

Paisley你的头像不好看了

runneverUID: 109902

为什么要写rp ？
学校有要求吗？

mappleUID: 56372

寄到NTU,邮费变成了71。8元，比我以前得多了30元。。。
不过大多是从别人那里“借鉴”的啊
