gg--My dissertation used a technique called meta-analysis to analyze the body of literature that involved gender differences and self-disclosure. It was a statistical approach to determine if the mixed findings (in some studies women disclosed more than men and vice versa, and in some studies disclosure was essentially equal) were spurious, or if, in fact, there was some enduring and statistically significant evidence of a difference in one direction. I loved the stat part of it as much as the topic area.
Pegasus, after I got the ph.d. someone said "Oh, another poor hungry dog." I thought that was pretty cute. When I was putting my then-husband thru Harvard (a LONG time ago), some people gave wives a ph.t. (putting hubby through). I didn't think that was quite as funny, because in my own experience most women didn't have the luxury of having a spouse putting them through.
Oh, Peg, I was also thinking recently about getting the LPC. But, too broke for that now. I'm glad you're going for it.
Anyhow, it was the only graduation ceremony I ever went to, and I LOVED it. That's not a bad thing to keep in mind either, gg. Sometime I'll tell the story about how each carload of people that went to the ceremony thought I was riding with the other, and I was left there with no ride...lol.
Oh, yeah, gg, when you're all done, you can make reservations at restaurants for Dr. GG, that's about the only time I get to use the Dr. part these days.
