How to Get a PhD - 4th edition: A Handbook for Students and their Supervisors Study Skills: Amazon.co.uk: Estelle Phillips, Derek.S. Pugh. I found a copy of this book in a university careers library, when starting my search for the right PhD studentship for me. Right from the start, the advice on making the right choices for me - particularly in choosing a supervisor - were invaluable. Some short while into starting at my college (Imperial), my supervisor remarked on how well our expectations of each other had worked out - I showed him my copy of the book, and teased him that he was actually the ideal supervisor according to their profiling, and that's why I had no hesitation in joining his research group.

Not only did he borrow my copy and read it, he then bought copies for all his other students as a means of provoking discussion about the PhD process, and how we might identify any areas of weakness.

A 35-item questionnaire concerning writing habits, experiences of writing and productivity was sent to 228 full-time, U.K. domiciled, social science research students. One hundred and one complete responses were received. Cluster analysis was used to identify three distinct groups of students in terms of the strategies they used when writing: “Planners”, who planned extensively and then made few revisions, “Revisers”, who developed content and structure through extensive revision, and “Mixed Strategy” writers, who both planned before starting to write and revised extensively as part of their writing processes.

The Planners reponed higher productivity than both the Revisers and Mixed Strategy Writers. Planners and Revisers did not differ significantly in how difficult they found writing to be; Planners found writing less difficult than did the Mixed Strategy Writers. 1993 - (Cullen) Quality in PhD education.

The main question being addressed by this research was 'how do postgraduate research students experience the process of doing a Ph.D.? ' The way this question was investigated was to discover how the students involved solved the problems which confronted them when doing a research degree. Seven case studies of Ph.D. students and their supervisors are reported. The student and supervisor pairs came from different disciplines and two universities. The case studies were conducted through interviews and the repertory grid was used as a tool throughout the three years of field work.
