Abstract

There are PhD holders who never forget to put the prefix "Dr" before their names, even in social exchanges. The day they are awarded the doctorate degree, they change all their social media profiles and unmistakably add the magical title of "Dr" to their names. All such longing for praise and glory is perhaps tolerable, but what is surprising is that most of these PhD holders have produced little or no research since the day they earned their research degree.
