Abstract

Researchers are too often trained under circumstances that discourage them from continuing research activities after they graduate. Three hypotheses are suggested that, if confirmed, would lead to a greater number of competent and enthusiastic researchers. (a) Arrange compatible peer groups. Allowing graduate students to form research teams to conduct dissertation studies would provide more social support than the individualistic environment traditionally required does. (b) Make the experience satisfying and enjoyable. Infuse a spirit of playfulness and puzzlement.
