Research question formulation is an essential component of the research process. It forms the basis of a research study and guides the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data. A well-crafted research question is specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART). It should clearly articulate the problem or issue under investigation and provide a roadmap for the research project.
Importance of Research Questions
Formulating a research question is crucial for several reasons:
