In a project led by the faculty of Management, as a Rawls PhD Scholar Blackwell authored a research proposal entitled "Entrepreneurial Self-Efficacy in Chambers of Commerce and Coworking Spaces:  A Between-Group Study" (Blackwell, 2018). Gauging assessments of Chamber of Commerce membership as opposed to that of modern coworking spaces, the author outlines qualitative samples in Dallas and Austin to follow through with the proposed study topic in a between-group study.

DeSanti and Blackwell (2019) have addressed renewable energy investment willingness through a series of interviews, outlined in a paper produced for Qualitative Methods with Dr. Robert Moses Peaslee, a champion of academic excellence  at the Texas Tech University College of Media & Communication. This scholarly project, in its current format titled " EVs, Solar, and Bulbs. Oh my! The adoption of in-home green technology", has asked respondents questions defining the terms "renewable", "energy", and "investment", leading to an interpretation of In-Home Green Technology (IHGT) (DeSanti & Blackwell, 2019).
