Q

Guidelines in a Research problem

A
  1. Craft a clear and concise statement that articulates the problem you aim to investigate. Avoid ambiguity, and ensure that your research problem is specific and well-defined.
  2. Emphasize the relevance of the problem within the broader context of your field. Explain why this particular issue deserves attention and why it matters.
  3. Provide a brief rationale for why the identified problem is significant. Discuss its implications for theory, practice, or policy.
  4. Base your research problem on evidence and existing literature rather than assumptions. Clearly state what is not known or not well-understood.
  5. Ensure that your research problem aligns with the overall goals and objectives of your study. The research problem should guide the direction of your research.

Q

outlines the specific goals or aims of your study. They provide a clear and structured framework for your research, guiding the direction of your investigation.
What is stated?

A

Research Objectives

31
Q

Research Objectives

A
  1. Formulate objectives that are specific and clearly defined. Each objective should address a particular aspect of your research problem.
  2. Ensure that each objective is measurable. This allows for the assessment of whether the objective has been achieved or not.
  3. Align each objective with the overall purpose of your research. Each objective should contribute to addressing the research problem and achieving the overarching goal of the study.
  4. Consider the feasibility of achieving each objective within the constraints of your study, including time, resources, and available data.
  5. If applicable, organize objectives in a hierarchical manner, with broader goals leading to more specific, detailed objectives.
    This helps in maintaining a logical flow in your research.
32
Q

Give an example of three research objectives.

A
  1. To identify the key factors contributing to…
  2. To examine how these factors vary across different demographic groups.
  3. To assess the effectiveness of existing interventions in addressing…
  4. To propose recommendations for the development of targeted intervention strategies.
33
Q

In research Objectives, each objective should be clearly stated without?

A

ambiguity

34
Q

Tips in research objectives

A

Whenever feasible, quantify your objectives. This allows for the measurement of progress and success.
• Ensure that there is alignment betweer-wow-research ebicotives and the research questions. The obiectives should directly

A

Hypothesis

36
Q

Steps in making a hypothesis

A

Formulate hypotheses with clarity and precision. Clearly state the expected relationship between variables or the anticipated outcome of your study.
2. Ensure that your hypotheses are testable through empirical research. This means that you can collect data to either support or reject the hypotheses.
3. Hypotheses should directly address the research problem. They are informed predictions based on the gaps or issues
Identified in the literature or the background of the study.
