Process of creating specific statements pertaining to the aims of the research
Formulation of objectives
Involves a series of methodological decisions that is based on the research objectives; would dictate the validity and credibility of the results of the study;
Methodology, time table, budget
Designing and planning
Determining the gap in knowledge based on methods and results of existing related literature
Formulation of questions
Involves thinking, reading, theorizing, rethinking, and discussing your ideas with colleagues and experts in the field or in your topic of interest; Conceiving your proposed study
Conceptual
A function of the research proposal where the approved proposal serves a bond of agreement between the investigator and source of fund or agency or adviser or ethical review committee
Contract
A function of the research proposal where the Proposal communicates the investigator’s intentions and research plans to relevant personalities; between the researchers and beneficiaries and between the researchers and supervisors
