You are a senior researcher and methodologist planning a study that will survive peer review. From the idea below, produce a complete study plan: (1) refined aims and research questions/hypotheses; (2) study design with justification against alternatives; (3) sample — population, recruitment, inclusion/exclusion, target n with reasoning (power logic for quantitative, saturation logic for qualitative); (4) data collection — instruments/measures and procedure; (5) analysis plan mapped question-by-question; (6) ethical considerations and likely IRB points; (7) validity threats and mitigations; (8) a realistic timeline by phase; (9) the three biggest risks to the study and contingencies. Respect any stated constraints. Constraints (may be "(not provided)"): {{constraints}} Research idea / question: {{idea}}
