How effective is a six-month peer-mentoring program in reducing self-reported loneliness and social isolation among residents aged 75 and over at St. Mary’s Care Home in Oxford, using mixed-methods social research (surveys and semi-structured interviews)?
Strengths:
Clear, bounded setting and population ( residents aged 75+ at St. Mary’s Care Home in Oxford ) with a defined time frame (six months).
Weaknesses:
How does the presence of bilingual (Catalan–English) storefront signage influence the purchasing decisions and time-on-site of international tourists in Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter during July and August 2025, as measured by observational field experiments and short exit surveys?
Strengths:
Clear, single guiding question focused on a specific setting (Gothic Quarter) and period (July–Aug 2025).
Weaknesses:
What is Other?
Strengths:
Concise and clear single-question focus.
Weaknesses:
Limit the scope by adding a concrete setting or boundary, e.g., "What is the concept of 'Other' within contemporary cultural studies in mainstream media 2010–2024?"
How does Other affect things?
Strengths:
The question is a single guiding statement and is in question form.
Weaknesses:
Specify the scope with concrete context. For example: "How does peer influence within social media groups affect decision‑making among 15–17‑year-olds in the United States in 2024–2025?"
