Example Proposal

All the things your grant proposal needs to include:

  • Description of the theoretical and/or practical importance of the research you intend to conduct
  • Description of the research methodology you will use
  • How or why you chose your sample size (this may or may not include a power analysis; consider thinking about the smallest effect size of interest, aka SESOI)
  • Description of the study costs : You can apply for up to ÂŁ10,000. Don’t worry if you don’t need the whole pot. So, let us know how much funding will be needed and how will it be spent.
    • Don’t forget to include the total study costs in addition to any extra funding you may need for bonus payments or custom screeners - (Note that the 33% service charge (and VAT where applicable) on each participant payment still applies as usual!)
  • Evidence that you’ve preregistered key aspects of your study. You can do this by including a link to your As Predicted-preregistration. (Wondering why you should preregister at all? Read more here!)
  • Explain how you’ll make your findings, study materials, analysis code and data openly available once the study is complete. (Please read about the importance of open, reproducible science).
