Question: How important do you think gender-collaborative research is needed? ..In social Science? There is growing real awareness about the importance of social men's issues. This project was done between male and female academics. "The European Research Network on Men in Europe comprises women and men researchers who are researching on men in an explicitly gendered way. The bringing together of women and men researchers is extremely important, necessary and timely in the development of research on men in Europe. Research on men that draws only on the work of men is likely to neglect the very important research that has been and is being made by women to research on men. As such, research and networking based on only men researchers is likely to reproduce some of the existing gender inequalities of research and policy development. In contrast, gender-collaborative research is necessary in the pursuit of gender equality, in the combating of gender discrimination, and in the achievement of equality and in the fight against discrimination more generally"... "For a very long time, men, masculinity and men’s powers and practices were generally taken-for-granted. Gender was largely seen as a matter of and for women. Men were generally seen as ungendered, as ‘just like that’, natural or naturalised – not only in everyday life and in politics, but also in academia. This is now less the case than even ten years ago. There has been a gradually growing realisation that men and masculinities are just as gendered as are women and femininities. It is now clear that ‘gender’ and ‘gender relations’ are about both women and men. This gendering of men is both a matter of changing academic and political analyses of men in society, and contemporary changes in the form of men’s own lives and men's experiences and perceptions, sometimes developing counter to their earlier expectations and the experiences of recent generations of other men". Aims and description of whole project at: http://www.eurowrc.org/06.contributions/1.contrib_en/44.contrib.en.htm Thoughts? Hi Ruper, so many questions! ;-) This is their site, which describes much better their policies, resources, methodologies, aim and Universities involved in the project: http://www.cromenet.org/

Answer: Historically, the entire field of psychology was based on findings using only white men of moderate to good health. The "fathers" of psych were of that same population -- Freud, Jung, Adler, etc. Women were studied, yes, but not in terms of how their symptoms compared to men, but in how they compared only to other women, whose diagnosis most frequently were prefaced by "hysterical__________" and that term colored any and all research that could have ever been of value. Because of the feminist movement and also because of the progress made within the field itself, the pendulum type backlash, particularly in the 80's and 90's, was for the field to concentrate almost exclusively on women. Experiments and studies used female only sample populations, a plethora of female theorists were finally taken seriously and gained credibility in the field. There were also theorists like self proclaimed neo-Freudian Karen Horney who postulated the Electra complex in direct answer to Freud's Oedipus complex. Her theory was absolute rubbish and only served as a pitiable example of a rabid feminist (which I define differently than 98% of the people who use this board) who wanted to further women's causes at any cost, even if the vehicle for doing so was not valid. The war cry for this evolution in psychology was essentially "Men had their moment in the sun, it' our turn now!" which, as a woman, yes I understand I guess. Men were the end all and be all in terms of psych and a whole half of the human population had been ignored for decades. However, as a scientist, I was despaired because we were now perpetuating the same exclusion that we claimed to be railing against. If a study sample involved white men between 25 and 40, it wouldn't get funding, the ehtics of the team and specifically the scientist would be called into question, it was ridiculous. I think gender specific research has intrinsic value. When you look at something like human behavior, the scientist must take into account and theorize for every conceivable variable (age, height, gender, race, country of origin etc). It makes sense to exclusively study men, and also exclusively study women--the two can later be compared for differences between the genders and also commonalities among the gender. Every scientist worth their salt knows that group specific study is inherently valuable and the intention is not to further divide the genders, but to better understand each and what they have in common. You must understand each as a seperate group before you can compare and look for common ground. Differences are easier to spot, and once they are found and documented, the 'sameness' begins to take shape.

Question: How does research take place in philosophy? I am an undergraduate student in philosophy, and am considering applying to graduate school. I am very good at philosophy, hence why I decided to take it as a major. However, I am at a loss as to how research takes place in philosophy. All the graduate schools say that one must demonstrate "potential for philosophical research" as part of the application process. I am well aware of the research methods used by scientists, but how would one research, and subsequently produce a dissertation in philosophy? Please don't answer unless you are a graduate student or a professional academic.

Answer: ...who said what and when - research will detail philosophically speaking... ...thanks for asking...

Question: Why is researching about other companies important for the company doing the research? Why is researching about other companies important for the company doing the research?

Answer: It's helps when trying to find out about competitors. Imagine you work for a cafe in a small town. You'd want to know how much to charge for the All Day Breakfast. Well a good thing to do is find out what all the other cafes in the town charge for their all day breakfast. If they all charge £5 then it'd be silly of you to charge £8 because everyone will go to the other cafes. If they all charge £5 then it'd also be silly of you to charge £2 because everyone would come to your cafe, but you wouldn't have enough seats, so you would be full, but you could have made more money by charging £4.60. Another thing to think about would be how nice their food is compared to yours, so if their breakfast wasn't very nice and only contained a nasty sausage, a fried egg, and some beans, you could offer a better breakfast for the same price - two sausages from local farms, bacon, beans, toast, mushroom, egg, free coffee. And once you have more customers because they like yours better, then you could put the price up a little. The other cafes would be watching your prices too, so they'd keep adjusting. Such is the nature of competition. And how do the companies all find this information? Research. And research can be as simple as using the competitor's products. (and in fact is exactly what happens)

Question: How much research experience is best to have if you want to go to a research oriented medical school? How much research experience during the undergraduate years looks best to have if you want to get into a research oriented medical school or go for an MD/Ph.D progam?

Answer: First, I don't know of many medical schools that aren't research-oriented, if there are any. If you're going for an M.D., you don't have any reason to do research as an undergraduate unless you plan on a research career. In which case, you'd be better off with a Ph.D. than with an M.D., or with the extra years required for an M.D./Ph.D. Undergraduate research might look good on your application for a highly competitive school, though. The folks I've known who have M.D./Ph.D.'s mostly didn't do any undergraduate research, and the majority of them never used their Ph.D., which means they wasted a lot of time to wind up in clinical practice anyway. The rest never use their M.D., so there's 4 years wasted of memorizing minutiae to pass Step 1 exams and to get clinical experience that was never put to use. There are some great biomedical scientists out there with M.D./Ph.D.'s, though, and I certainly wouldn't want to discourage someone who might be another one. If you plan to do research, I think the more the better. Many schools have summer research programs where you can work in a lab full-time, and can do it several summers. There are also usually a lot of work-study jobs in labs. They may start out cleaning glassware or making buffers, but if you're bright and ambitious, they can easily move into helping with experiments.

Question: What are some research topics that use absolute zero measurements? I must write a paper on a research topic that uses absolute zero measurements but I can't come up with anything. I am drawing a blank. If someone could just help me think of ideas, I would greatly appreciate it. Here is the criteria for my paper: Identify a research issue, problem, or opportunity that uses data that has absolute zero measurements, such as interval and ratio level data. Some examples might include the difference between benefits packages offered by an organization, the feasibility of outsourcing a department such as customer service, the feasibility of hiring more employees when production increases instead of offering overtime pay to existing employees, or the costs associated with moving a home-based business into an office setting. Be sure to obtain instructor approval for your research issue, problem, or opportunity before completing your Hypothesis Testing Paper.

Question: How many pages of research should I have for a 8 page research essay? I have about 6 pages of research so far. How much more research do you think I need or can I go right into planning me essay?

Answer: The number of pages of research you have really don't correlate to the number of pages in your essay. If you're writing properly and not plagiarizing, you won't be using pages of your research in your original paper. You can *quote* from your research, but it shouldn't replace your writing. Instead of counting pages of research, think about the idea that you're trying to convey in your paper and how the research that you have gathered supports/proves your idea or contradicts/refutes it. Think also about your outline or the structure of your essay and see where you can quote your research to help advance your premise or thesis statement. Good luck!

Question: What type of scientists research muscular dystrophy? I'm doing a project on it in school and we're supposed to find out how much money we need in order to research the disease of our choice. (We're not really going to research it, it's a simulation.) I want to know what type of scientist I'm going to need so then I can find out how much they get paid. Do I need a microbiologist, or a geneticist? And, it would be helpful if you told me their yearly salary. Anything else on researching muscular dystrophy would be great!

Answer: I would suggest checking with the Muscular Dystrophy Association, they have done this for decades and have gotten not a lot closer to finding a "cure", but they do provide much assistance to the families of those affected.

Question: How are statistics and research design related? What is the relationship between research design and the opera How are statistics and research design related? What is the relationship between research design and the operational definition of a problem statement?

Answer: Stats and Research methods go hand in hand. The design of an experiment will determine the statistical procedure used (or sometimes vice versa). For example, a yes/no questionnaire elicits categorical data, and techniques such as chi-square or Wilcoxon should be used. As well, ANOVA techniques (whether factorial, ANCOVA, one way, etc) also depend on the design of the experiment. There are many factors: number of independent and dependent variables, whether you used repeated measures, whether the subjects are related, presence of a control group... the list goes on.

Question: What current research is being done on mummification? I have to finish a research paper by tomorrow for my school science fair, and my project is to mummify a fish. But my science teacher has this warped perception of everything, so I have to find some current research being done on the topic of mummification. Does anyone know a good place to find this information? A direct link would be nice.

Answer: yes you can goto Science.com and type it into the search bar and then it should have it there!

Question: How to do research on the internet for the economy AND human resources of an automobile company? I'm doing research on economy and human resources on Honda. I tried to use google for doing the research but hard to search for the website which contain suitable information.

Answer: Because Honda is a publicly traded company, you can get some of their financial reports from the Securities & Exchange Commission through their EDGAR database (http://www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml). Here is a link to Honda's most recent Annual Report/Form 20-F: http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/715153/000119312508143508/d20f.htm You can also find information at Honda's Investor Relations page: http://world.honda.com/investors/ Unfortunately, any information that Honda is not required to disclose might prove difficult to find because companies want to guard any trade secrets. If you want to find information on their management strategies/organizational structure, your best bet may be in academic or trade journals such as Organizational Dynamics or Personnel Today. If you can go to a public or academic library, I would recommend searching in an EBSCO Business Source database.

Question: How long does it take a junior research analyst to move up to different levels? Equities research. How long does it take to move up the career ladder, junior research, equity research, senior research, whatever else?

Answer: Of course it assumes you perform above standards, so imagine 6 months to 2 years to be leave your junior status, then about 5+ to move higher.

Question: How does market research apply to property management? My mom wants to get into property management and the job descriptions all include "market research"? What kind of market research would you do for apartment buildings? She was a property manager for 3 buildings for 27 years and she never did or even heard of such a thing. What kind of background do you have to have?

Answer: Market research in this case means a basic knowledge of the housing market (rentals) in your area. It might include knowing strategies to improve a complex, or buildings profitability, or how to persuade the tenants to be more timely in their payments. It's not any one skill set, but several. In other words, the days of simply collecting rent are over. But if your mom is a quick study, she might be able to persuade them to give her a try, based on her previous experience. Good luck to her!

Question: What should I research for a paper in my human sexuality class? I am taking a human sexuality class and have to write a research paper. Any ideas on what to research?

Answer: The effect of the family environment during childhood on a person's sexuality (excluding incest and molestation) or maybe how adult sexuality is influenced by sexual experiences during teen years. Does a bad experience when young have a lasting influence? "The Influence Of Teen Sexual Experiences on Adult Sexuality"
