An important component of my doctoral
study will be participants. According to Saunders, Lewis & Thornhill
(2007), participants is a critical component of any research as they are the
primary sources of data to be collected by the researcher from the field.
Hence, the participants' component will form the basis of carrying out the
field study so as to collect primary data associated with my research on small
businesses sustainability strategies. In this component, I will discuss various
aspects related to my doctoral study participants. First, in my doctoral study,
I will provide information concerning the type of the participants that will be
selected to take part in the study. The participants will be expected to be
small business owners operating in the Huston region of Texas. Also, in this
section associated with the component, I will provide reasons for the selection
of this participant and how they are essential when it comes to the completion
of my study.
Another
crucial component of my doctoral study is reliability and validity. It will be
concerned with providing information on the measures that I will take to ensure
that my qualitative doctoral study will provide findings that are valid and
reliable in nature. For example, the section will show how will deal with bias
during the data collection process for purposes of ensuring that it does not
end up impacting negatively on the validity of the overall study findings.
Thus, this component will be very critical in ensuring that will be able to
complete my doctoral study and ensure that the results that will be provided
will be accepted as valid and reliable academically in the future.
