Zia Ullah K.

Are you a PhD scholar, DBA candidate, or researcher who needs a specialist who can take your project from research design through data analysis to a submission-ready manuscript? That is exactly what I do. I'm Zia, a PhD Scholar in Management Sciences (Marketing) at Kohat University of Science & Technology and a university lecturer. I support quantitative research, DBA and management studies, and academic writing using SPSS and SmartPLS (PLS-SEM). With 100% Job Success and Top Rated status across 23+ projects, I bring the same rigor I use in my own peer-reviewed research (published work on ResearchGate and Google Scholar) to every client project. QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH, SPSS & SMARTPLS (PLS-SEM) I take a dataset and a research model from raw data to a publication-ready results chapter: - SPSS: data cleaning and screening, descriptives, reliability (Cronbach's alpha), EFA, t-tests, ANOVA/ANCOVA, correlation, linear and logistic regression, chi-square and non-parametric tests, mediation and moderation via the Hayes PROCESS macro - SmartPLS (PLS-SEM): measurement model assessment (outer loadings, AVE, composite reliability, HTMT and Fornell-Larcker), structural model evaluation (path coefficients, R-squared, f-squared, Q-squared, VIF), bootstrapping, mediation, moderation, multi-group analysis (MGA) and IPMA - Deliverables: formatted APA tables, model diagrams, and written interpretation you can drop straight into your thesis or manuscript DBA, MANAGEMENT & MARKETING RESEARCH As a research consultant, I've designed study protocols and methodologies for postgraduate scholars and academic teams, reviewed study designs before launch to catch weaknesses early, and supported manuscript preparation and journal selection. I help DBA candidates and management or marketing researchers build the conceptual framework, hypotheses, and survey instrument a rigorous study needs, then carry it through analysis and reporting. RESEARCH ARTICLES, LITERATURE REVIEWS & ACADEMIC WRITING Systematic and narrative literature reviews, research gap identification, research proposals, and thesis or dissertation chapters (introduction, methodology, discussion), written to the same standard I hold my own published work to. ACADEMIC EDITING, APA 7 & FORMATTING Proofreading and language polishing, APA 7 / Harvard / Chicago referencing, EndNote and Mendeley reference management, and Word formatting for long documents (table of contents, headings, tables and figures, cross-references, page numbering). I can also run a similarity check and help you improve citation and paraphrasing where a report flags overlap. REVIEWER RESPONSES & MANUSCRIPT REVISION If you're revising after peer review, I help you interpret reviewer comments, strengthen the analysis and its presentation, and prepare a clear point-by-point response. ALSO I occasionally support business reports, business plans, and market research for clients who need that alongside academic work. Send me your dataset, research model, thesis stage, or reviewer comments along with your deadline, and I'll reply with what I can do, what I need from you, and a clear scope.
