Question

Assignment (1000 words)

Your task is to write a brief proposal for an RCT for an intervention of your choice. This should be for a non-pharmacological intervention, instead focusing on a psychological or psychosocial intervention. This proposal should be written as if submitting to an imaginary grant funding body. Your aim is to convince the funding body that the RCT you propose is valuable, rigorous and robust and thus should be funded.
