Submit An Academic Proposal (DOC | 33KB)

Are you working on a dissertation or seeking unique research for an article? You can submit a request for FPA to review your research proposal and assist in conducting a study among our members. Each proposal goes through a peer review process and is evaluated using the following criteria:

• Methodology (is the methodology appropriate and achievable?)
• Timeless (will the research's applicability last?)
• Objective (no inappropriate influence)
• Relevant (topical to financial planning)
• Innovative/Original (new research question, method or approach)
• Theory Building (foundational, advancement oriented)
• Depth/Breadth (not surface research)
• Usability (practical implications for practicing financial planners)
• FPA Appropriate (meets FPA's and the Research Center's aim/objectives)
