Walden Dissertation Trivia 2


Some Walden dissertation trivia, in honor of Friday the 13th! You may want to compare the changes since my last Trivia post on Sept 13. 

There have been 5710 total dissertations published at Walden. Of these, 1628 dissertations were in the field of psychology. Of the total Walden dissertations, 56 indicate in the keywords that it is a quantitative paper, 49 qualitative, 17 mixed methods. 191 have women in title, 39 have men in title, 916 have children in the title, 10 have animal. 

There were 931 dissertations from Walden in 2013; of these, 239 were in psychology. There were 204 psychology dissertations in 2012, 159 in 2011, and 143 in 2010. Thus far in 2014, 270 total are posted (keep in mind that it takes a while for them to appear), there are 69 in psychology for 2014.  

Of the total psychology dissertations, 210 mentioned relationship in the title, 42 of those were referring to relationship between individuals. In psychology 168 mentioned women in the title, 6 of these also have relationship in the title. 26 have men in the title and 2 mentioned relationships. In psychology this year, 4 mention bullying, and 8 mention self-efficacy.
