One of the trickiest parts of developing a research question is knowing where to start. From my readings, the general process is to focus your topic on a specific issue of interest. In pursuit of that lofty goal:
- Find a topic that can readily be researched.
- List all the questions you’d like answered about the topic.
- Pick the issue that resonates with you, that can provide ample research, and that has a reasonable scope.
A key point in developing my research question regards operationalizing 1referring to the actions, processes, or operations used to measure or identify variables . That is:
Write the question to include identifying the association or relationship between or among the variables I want to understand.
