How to get out of ABD status?
I have been officially tagged with the unofficial term ABD, as it has been more than 5 years of my PhD with no scope of completing the dissertation. I have completely lost my focus due to my priorities of resolving the issues of my life. And now I just see it as something which is […]

One thing I can say is that you are not alone! It usually takes time to write a dissertation and 5 years is not that bad actually. The thing with ABD is that life takes over the studies and you no longer have time to complete your dissertation, and so you get stuck. While I am still doing my PhD, my brother went through something around the similar lines. Not many people will agree on a social site but taking professional help is the most safest and effective option. I am attaching a link to a website from where I got editing done for my research paper. You can go through their site and this blog, which might help you out.

Well, to cross ABD status, you should participate in dissertation workshops with motivational strategies, group discussions and seminars organised by various institutes. These workshops provide you with expert and professional advice on how to go about your research. They can help you understand what you are missing. And as far is writing is concerned, you can join a writing centre for that and trust me, there are tons of them around.

Thank you for the replies. Taking professional help is my last option, but before I would like to try the writing centres.
@dianafreeh: Do these centres offer online help? And can you please share with me the list of good writing centres?

Diana Freeh
Yes they do. There are online writing centres. I am sharing a link to a website where you will find a list of 100 resources. Though the list comprises of other academic resources, most of them are writing centres, top ones. You can select the centres from this list, and then go to their website, talk to them and see how that works. Good luck.

How to go about writing a medical manuscript?
I am pursuing my research in epilepsy that has been enjoyable but still a challenge. I understand that to leave a mark, educational qualifications are not as important as research papers are. In light of this notion, I want to prepare a manuscript on my work and get it published in a reputed journal. My […]

You are right, having published research papers are real assets and essential for us scholars. A medical manuscript is as good as any other, having major headings of introduction, methods and materials, results and discussion, and conclusion.
I found this post, which addresses the medical field and though it might be of some use.

What I understand is that first, you should contact the medical journal where you want your paper published. Most of the journals usually have a set standard for their papers, where they specify the all the requirements and format of the paper. From there you can get a clear idea of what is needed from you. Prepare a draft and then mould it in the required format.

APA format for SPSS tables
Okay so APA for everything in a thesis or dissertation is achievable, but SPSS? That is a road block for me. I have so many tables in my document and not one is appropriate. What’s more, I am unable to format it accurately as it is. I heard that you can automatically get SPSS tables […]

I was stuck at the same point. To format SPSS result tables is a one BIG task and tedious, to say the least. If you have a lot of tables then you can just automatically do it, without wasting any time. I am attaching a post which wonderfully explains all the steps for that. You can just follow the steps, it’s actually simple.

In my research, I did not generate automatic APA formatted SPSS table, but formatted the tables later. It wasn’t much time consuming, when you get the hang of it. I formatted the tables by referring to this post:

You are asking a really broad question. For choosing a topic, you must narrow down a subject, to say the least. For example, networking, information security systems, artificial intelligence, etc. etc. So, decide which subject you want to study, what intrigues you the most? Then look for the trendy fields.

Validity and reliability is something that is used in quantitative research. Though some argue against it, I find it extremely important to check and ensure the research. It’s totally up to you, whether or not you want to run validity for your investigation. I am attaching the link to a blog post that has wonderfully explained the concept of validity in qualitative research and what process is used to achieve the same. You can refer it to grasp the whole concept.
