Test graduate students' ability to apply evidence-based time-management strategies to optimize doctoral research productivity by selecting, adapting, and justifying techniques (time‑blocking, Pomodoro, SMART goals, prioritization, batching, delegation) for typical tasks (literature review, data collection, analysis, writing), creating actionable weekly/monthly plans, choosing metrics to monitor progress, and revising plans to address common constraints (interruptions, deadlines, cognitive fatigue).
