What is it about?
We present the results of six support groups that focus on sharing difficult emotions about doing a PhD. We show that, after attending 8 weekly sessions in a support group, PhD researchers' wellbeing improved significantly and so did their confidence in completing their degree on time. Other universities can adapt our model to support their PhD researchers and improve their overall doctoral experience.
