Is this the right service for you?

A proposal, an early study design or a methods section needing a reasoned review. A consultation helps you understand choices; a project review provides written feedback on a defined methods or analysis plan.

What this can cover

  • Align questions, aims, design and available evidence
  • Examine sampling and measurement choices
  • Review a proposed methods or analysis plan
  • Document assumptions, limitations and next steps

What you can expect to receive

  • Consultation: discussion of the agreed question and a short next-step summary
  • Plan review: comments on alignment, assumptions, feasibility and missing justification
  • Questions and decisions to take to your supervisor or research team

The quote confirms the specific deliverables and review format. See a clearly labelled synthetic demonstration.

Prepare a useful enquiry

  1. Outline the research question, design and stage.
  2. Describe the available evidence, sampling constraints and intended measurements.
  3. Tell us whether you need a discussion or written review, and what has already been approved.

Support for your own work

You and your supervisory team make the final design decisions and obtain necessary approvals. Methodology support does not provide ethics approval, recruit participants or certify a study. Changes to an approved protocol need the appropriate institutional review.

You review, adapt and finalise the work. Tell us the relevant institution or journal requirements so we can agree an appropriate scope before starting.

Questions about this service

What does the starting price include?

The price covers the agreed intervention, not every possible task associated with the document. We confirm the sections, word count or project deliverables and total in the quote. Any further work needs an agreed scope.

How do deadlines and follow-up revisions work?

Turnaround is confirmed with your quote. Tell us your deadline and the feedback you expect to need; the quote will specify the follow-up included and any additional work. No fixed deadline or unlimited revision package is assumed.

Should I send my document now?

Start with a brief description. Do not include manuscript text, participant information, confidential feedback or raw datasets in the initial enquiry. If material is needed to scope the work, agree an appropriate way to share it.
