Hi Dr. Guy E. I struggled through my M.Sc. project and I felt completely inadequate to undertake a PhD. However, your purpose, which is to help others succeed through sharing of your knowledge, has given me the boldness to begin the process of my PhD. Thanks and may God bless you and your family richly.
Dr GUY I AM REALLY THANKFUL AND ENDEPTETED TO YOU FOR SHARING THIS MATERIAL FREELY ! I THINK YOU DONT KNOW JUST HOW MANY PEOPLE IN THE WORLD YOU ARE HELPING!! I WOULD LIKE TO SAY " I LOVE YOU" LOL WITH ALL DUE RESPECT FOR YOU AND YOUR WIFE! BUT REALLY I THINK YOU ARE ONE HELL OF A COACH ! KEEP IT UP !! AND GOD BLESS AND PROTECT YOUR KIDS!!
Nari Maru Nari, WOW. Thank you so much for those kind words. It's my purpose on this earth to help others, so your words have a great amount of weight for me. Please, send me a question any time and I'll cover it on my dissertation show.
Dr. Guy, This is a very informative videos. Learning from home puts a new spin on adult learning. I just started this process in March 2020. I have learned a lot since then, even on my writing skills. I believe the information I have gathered will help me be an even better writer! Thank you for sharing your experiences and videos. Thank you so much. Roxy from northern California.
Hi Dr. Guy, I found your video as an undergrad student doing a independent research project (the course starts in January 2019). One major component of this course is to write a literature review. I have revised my research statement to reflect the advice you've provided here but note the buzz word (impact)... "The purpose of this literature review is to provide an overview of the impacts of oil and gas production in Alberta on the biology of aquatic organisms in freshwater ecosystems in 2019."
You're awesome doc. I was stuck on how to write this research proposal for my counseling program and this helped alot. Thank you. I now have an idea of what to do. You definitely have a new subscriber.
Another Superb informative Guidance Video esp for a year 3 struggling student. If still struggling to get started then rewatch this video and follow steps. I was hooked and watched all of Dr GW vids and realised that Im trying to start my Lit R first without a clear Purpose statement-Now I get it - I need to do this step first then start researching!!! THANK YOU Dr GW for all you do, you are giving me excitement and guidance to succeed in this new skill set!!! Top Man. Si (British Army Commando).
Thank God I stumbled upon your videos, each one I've watched so far, is sooo useful and insightful. I'm literally taking down notes as if i'm attending a lecture. Thank you so much Dr. Guy! Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much! Completing that statement at the end helped me put everything into perspective. I am now working on my Prospectus and I feel that my chair will have a clear picture of exactly what I want to study now, I wouldn’t have thought of putting in the year of completion either. Thank you again, I’m going to watch the rest of your videos!
Guy… you are the man !! This is really helpful. I found this video at the right moment. So, I will carry on with the rest of them. Thanks so much and greetings from México.
the more I watch this video, the more I pray to God to bless you and protect you! I thank you very much for all the information and pieces of advice. I truly appreciate this, this is really helpful. It is just magical Amina from Algeria
Do you know that I was laughing loud, when you blew your computer screen at the 6th step? I was laughing not only because it was funny, but also at that moment, I knew how to write my detail and specific dissertation purpose of statement, which was takes months for me to figured it out earlier, You Are Amazing !
Guy E White The purpose of this cross sectional study is to investigate the 'literature theme: haven't decide yet' of anglers who fishing at freshwater fishing piers in Summer 2015. I wonder if this correct ? Thank you and really appreciate.
Izha Kama It will depend on what your chair thinks and on the norms of your program, but it sounds great. My only question is "WHERE" are these freshwater fishing piers? Are they in a single state or province? Are they only in a certain region?
I made some timestamps for myself incase I want to revisit the video but maybe you guys will find it helpful too. 00:24 Overview and learning objectives 02:49 Step 1: Figure out the WHO 07:46 Step 2 Figure out the Where 13:11 Step 3: Figure out the What 16:06 Choosing a Theoretical Framework 20:14 Step 4: Figure out the When 21:27 Step 5: Figure out the how (methodology) 22:33 Step 6: Putting it all together: Example of a purpose statement
Thanks a lot Dr. Guy. This is very informative and quite simple... the entire process made easy to understand and apply. I am practically taking my research lectures from your presentations.. great work!
i am going to definitely follow your points and re write my process all over again since i missed out so much and all this time i was assuming i was ding it all ok!!. God Bless You Dr Guy you are great GUY!!!
Helpful indeed. Trying to remember the logical points is difficult in the midst of the distractions of so much literature always already in streaming review. The purpose considered separate from the problem is key for me tonight since I typically collapse the two and smother... Thanks Guy!
Thanks, Dr. Guy, this demonstration design is perfect for those of us, where reading is not enough and sound mentoring makes all the difference in the world. I have been struggling to understand what I was missing and it was the conscious examination of the process itself.
Rev. Sunee Robinson Hi Rev. Robinson. So happy that this could help in some way. It's my purpose in life, God given, to bring clarity to big, crazy projects. Have you checked out my new show "Office Hours with Dr. Guy"?
I am so thankful for this video sharing of your knowledge. I've done many rewrites because I couldn't grasp the structure of drafting one. I think after now I can write a far better one moving forward.
Thank you for the email and your videos are very helpful. Thank you so much from South Africa. Yes you've been placed here on this planet for a reason. Much appreciation Dr White. Thank you very much
Wonderful video Dr Guy, Thank you very much for this great help and this energy that you implant in your students. I feel very lucky to learn from you.
thanks for ur kind help. I wanted to know the purpose statement comes right before the literature review? and one should achieve all 4 key related specifics( who, where, what, when). since I am working on a planning approach to the rejuvenation of water bodies.
Wow...Thanks a bunch..You are awesome. Simple and motivating...I am just in the process of applying for a place to study for a doctorate but I feel I CAN finally go through it when its time. I am a Public Health Professional and I am just wandering if there can be some health related examples...thanks for the GREAT work you are doing. God bless!
Hello, What is the difference between overall purpose and purpose of the study? Because it says that the overall purpose should be written in the abstract, and the purpose of the study in the introduction. Thanks in advance. You are great. Kind Regards...
Hi Dr. Guy, Thanks for this material. really helpful. I really appreciate if you could elaborate more on "The Sniff Test" particularly the "buzzword" thanks
Hi Dr Guy, your video is informative. And although, it provided clarity, i am totally confused. My purpose seems like it needs to tweaked again. After watching your video, I took a look at my outcome and something is missing. I am not sure what it is, but I know something is missing or something needs to be tweaked. I am a Small Business owner and I want to bring awareness to the high percentage failure rate of small businesses. The purpose of this qualitative Delphi study is to examine if Information Systems will alleviate the high percentage of failure of CEOs within the first five years of operation of small businesses in the United States. Does my purpose statement seem too broad, not enough info, or not measurable? Thank you in advance, Stephanie
Hi Dr.Guy! Firstly, you are doing a great work by sharing this knowledge with others. This gave a lot of clarity to me about writing a dissertation. Learning from more of your videos.... I also have a question if you can help please. It is regarding the buzz words/notions of comparison if below is my research details: Problem Statement: Many studies in the field of family relationships have focused on Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law relationships to understand the cause of disharmony if it is the ego that plays a role in individual personalities and the relationship between the two individuals. Query on the buzz word "relationship" may be ! Purpose Statement: The purpose of this is to the of in
Hi Dr. Guy, am having trouble with my research for undergraduate program, you have some material on such, like choosing a good program statement and collecting data for it? Please help.
Dr. Guy, I like the organization of your video on the subject of the Purpose Statement, but how do this work if you are writing on a subject such as Prayerlessness?
+Christine Marie There are many ways to do this. I think the question is if this is a "relation" correlation thing... or is this more of a "qualitative analysis" sort of "examine the relationship" thing. Often, a qualitative approach works best.
+Valerie Vaughn Hi Valerie! It depends on the study, but I typically do not recommend a correlational study for dissertation writers. Typically, it misses the point of what one is precisely attempting to research.
HI DR GUY! AM KIMARIO REVOCATI MASTERS STUDENT ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES OPEN UNIVERSITY OF TANZANIA. YOUR VIDEO HELP ME MUCH. MAY YOU PLEASE HELP ME PROPER WAYS OF STATING SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES
Dr. Guy, what do you think of this purpose statement? Thank you.

Hello,
What is the difference between overall purpose and purpose of the study?
Because it says that the overall purpose should be written in the abstract, and the purpose of the study in the introduction.
Thanks in advance.
You are great.
Kind Regards...
Hi Dr. Guy, Thanks for this material. really helpful. I really appreciate if you could elaborate more on "The Sniff Test" particularly the "buzzword"

Loved it!
So happy to hear that! Please let me know how I can help and I'll make a video addressing your question :)
You are amazing ,Thank you
Hi Dr Guy, your video is informative. And although, it provided clarity, i am totally confused. My purpose seems like it needs to tweaked again. After watching your video, I took a look at my outcome and something is missing. I am not sure what it is, but I know something is missing or something needs to be tweaked.

Thank you very much sir.

I'm back. Thanks Dr Guy!
you´re the best, thanks
Hi Dr.Guy! Firstly, you are doing a great work by sharing this knowledge with others. This gave a lot of clarity to me about writing a dissertation. Learning from more of your videos....
I also have a question if you can help please. It is regarding the buzz words/notions of comparison if below is my research details:
Problem Statement:
Many studies in the field of family relationships have focused on Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law relationships to understand the cause of disharmony if it is the ego that plays a role in individual personalities and the relationship between the two individuals.
Query on the buzz word "relationship" may be !
Purpose Statement:
The purpose of this is to the of in
Dr.Guy, just checking if my comment query got missed. Please suggest. Thanks!
+Kapil Chatkara Hi Kapi! In short, YES. I do think the theories behind the 16PF could be your theoretical framework.
Is this the same as Significance of the Study?
Thank you! Very helpful in making things simple and clear.
Amazing material...! Do you have any staff regarding questionnaire design and formulation? I will be glad to follow it up: from South Korea
+Alexander Nkunika Hi Alexander! No, but I should! I'll get on that!
Hi Dr. Guy, am having trouble with my research for undergraduate program, you have some material on such, like choosing a good program statement and collecting data for it? Please help.
Thank you
Dr. Guy, thank you so much! Is it a good idea to do an intervention and then qualitatively study the impact of the intervention?
Dr. Guy, I like the organization of your video on the subject of the Purpose Statement, but how do this work if you are writing on a subject such as Prayerlessness?
Toby, could you define "prayerlessness" for me?
Thanks!
the real stuff is at 2.51. the earlier parts are hammering my head with repetitive introductions. Very helpful insights though!. Tq.
What if you are examining a relationship to see if/how it exists...rather than trying to prove a relationship?
+Christine Marie There are many ways to do this. I think the question is if this is a "relation" correlation thing... or is this more of a "qualitative analysis" sort of "examine the relationship" thing. Often, a qualitative approach works best.
Ooh My God.... Guy.... you are my GUY
You speak of local / organizations, and i am looking at Latina women who have experienced IPV. Would that be the who and the local?
About figuring out the who ; can I say Young girls and women who are negatively affected by beauty ads ???
Dr. Guy- What if you are writing a Correlational Study, will this take years to complete? Very informative video may I say. Valerie
+Valerie Vaughn Hi Valerie! It depends on the study, but I typically do not recommend a correlational study for dissertation writers. Typically, it misses the point of what one is precisely attempting to research.
could you attach some samples, that would be great.
