Proposal Part 1: Title of the Study

The Proposal Prep document from Dr. S says that the title of the study has to be "10-12 words maximum (plain English)."  I think this is much like naming your baby after he's already earned his driver's license. (!)

However, I found more than a few examples from Harvard's recent grads at this link.  Most of those grads managed to be short and sweet with their titles.  Dr. S says that for every word in my title over seven, I owe him $5!

My title currently has nine words in it ($10 to Dr. S).  This is also the ninth iteration of it.  It seems to change as I go through the rest of the parts of the proposal.

Stay tuned...
