Abstract

There are countless illustrations that attest to the level of rigour associated with perusing postgraduate study – some empirical (Abedi & Benkin, 1987; Bowen, & Rudenstine, 1992; Goldie, 1998, 2005; Fischer, & Zigmond, 1998), others anecdotal (Mitchell & Rosiek, 2005; Smallwood, 2004), and still others somewhere inbetween (Baird, 1990; Edwards, 2010; Turner, Miller, & Mitchell-Kernan, 2002).
