Research Problem Selection
1.
RESEARCH PROBLEM © CHIPS
Networks
2.
A research problem
is a question that researcher wants to answer or a problem that a researcher wants to solve Selection of research problem depends on several factors such as researcher’s knowledge, skills, interest, expertise, motivation & creativity with respect to the subject of inquiry. © CHIPS Networks
3.
• In other
words, ‘a research problem is an area of concern where there is a gap in the knowledge base needed for professional practices. © CHIPS Networks
4.
Identification of
a research problem is the first & most important step in research process. Generally, a broad area is selected & then a broad topic is delimited or narrowed down to a specific one- sentence statement of the problem. This step of the research process is considered as the most difficult & challenging, & need slots of time. A research problem may come from several sources: © CHIPS Networks
5.
© CHIPS Networks
6.
Day-to-day personal experience
of a research may serve as good source of ideas to formulate a research problem. For example, a researcher observed domestic violence suffered by wives of alcoholic husbands. This experience may provide ideas to identity several research problems related to domestic violence against women. There may be so many such life experiences of a researcher which could be used to develop a research problem. © CHIPS Networks
7.
© CHIPS Networks
8.
When we critically
study books & articles relating to the subject of our interest, including research report, opinion articles, & summaries of clinical issues, pertinent questions may arise in our mind. These may strike reader’s mind indirectly by stimulating imagination & directly by stating what additional research is needed. © CHIPS Networks
9.
A body of
knowledge should be developed on a sound foundation of research findings. Usually at the end of a research further research problems are suggested, based on the shortcomings of previous research, which can be investigated. © CHIPS Networks
10.
Research is a
process of theory development & theory testing. It an existing theory is used in developing a researchable problem, a specific statement from the theory must be isolated. © CHIPS Networks
11.
For example, HIV/AIDS,
sexual harassment, domestic violence, & gender equality in health care & in research are some of the current social & political issues of concern for health care professionals. © CHIPS Networks
12.
Brainstorming sessions are
good techniques to find new questions, where an intensified discussion among interested people of the profession is conducted to find more ideas to formulate a good research problem. © CHIPS Networks
13.
Traditionally institutions are
considered good sources of knowledge as well as sources to find new research problems. It is believed that reflective mind is good sources of ideas, which may be used to formulate a good research problem. © CHIPS Networks
14.
നാട്ടറിവ് Common beliefs could
be right or wrong. For examples, it is generally believed that studying just before the test decrease the score. We believe we should not study just before test to relax our mind. Researchers can conduct a research study on whether one should study before the test or not. © CHIPS Networks
15.
During field exposure,
researchers get variety of experiences, which may provide plenty of ideas to formulate research problems. For example, while working in field a researcher observed a specific traditional practice for cure of disease condition, which can be used as research problem to investigate its efficacy. © CHIPS Networks
16.
Experts are believed
to have sound experience of their respective field, which may suggest a significance problem to be studied. In addition, expert may help in finding a current problem of discipline to be solve, which may serve as basis for formulation of research problem. © CHIPS Networks
17.
© CHIPS Networks
18.
1. Significance to
profession A problem which a researcher is selecting should have significance to profession or it will not serve any purpose. A research problem is significant for profession when it is directed to develop or refine the body of professional knowledge. © CHIPS Networks
19.
2. Originality It is
fundamentally considered that every research problem should be new & unique in itself. Therefore, it is the key responsibility of a researcher that an innovative knowledge is used for selecting a research problem, so as to extend the growth of existing body of knowledge on a profession. © CHIPS Networks
20.
3. Feasibility Feasibility is
an essential consideration of any research project. Regardless of how significant or researchable a problem may be, the feasibility of research problem in reference to time, availability to subjects, facilities, equipment & money, & ethical considerations should be checked. It will help the researcher to decide whether selected problem is appropriate or inappropriate & study can be actually carried out © CHIPS Networks
21.
Time: It is wise
to allow more time than seems to be needed because unexpected delays frequently occur. © CHIPS Networks
22.
Cost: All research
projects cost money; some studies are much more expensive than others. The researcher must consider realistically the financial resources available. © CHIPS Networks
23.
Equipment & supplies:
All research projects require some type of resources. Therefore, before making the final decision to conduct a study, an accurate determination of the needed equipment & supplies should be ensured. If researcher takes into consideration equipment & supplies in the early phases of a research project, there are less chances of the project to be revised or discarded later because of equipment or supply problems. © CHIPS Networks
24.
Administrative support: Many research
projects require administrative support. Financial as well as psychological support from administrative is very helpful. Knowing that your superiors support your research efforts can be very powerful motivating force. © CHIPS Networks
25.
Peer support: Many
research ideas have never been developed because potential researchers received no support from their peers. One of the best ways to determine a researchable problem is through interactions & discussions with other people. © CHIPS Networks
26.
Availability of subjects:
A researcher may believe that study subjects are readily available for the study. But this may not be the case. Potential subjects may not meet the study criteria, may be unwilling to participate, or may already be participating in other studies. © CHIPS Networks
27.
Researcher’s competence: A
research problem can only be feasible if it is in accordance with researcher’s competence, where researcher is capable to handle a given research problem. © CHIPS Networks
28.
Ethical considerations: A
researcher must ensure that the research problem can be considered by the ethical committee without undue hurdles. A very important topic of research cannot be considered feasible unit & unless it is in accordance with ethical guideline. © CHIPS Networks
29.
4. Solvable/researchable: Problem selected
is considered good only if it is solvable so that chances of insolvability of problem should be minimized. It will enhance relevant results. For example, a researcher selects a research problem to know the existence of God in this universe. These sorts of problems are ambiguous & impossible to solve. Therefore, the researcher must ensure that a research problem selected for the study is solvable. © CHIPS Networks
30.
5. Current: A good
research problem must be based on the current problems & needs of a profession, so that results generated will be of more use. Furthermore, more number of the professionals will be interested in the research conducted on the current issues of their profession. © CHIPS Networks
31.
6. Interesting: A research
problem can only be considered good if it is an accordance with researcher’s field of interest. A research problem must be as per the motivation of the researcher & it should be fascinating to the researcher, so that research is conducted with full enthusiasm & not merely for its accomplishment. © CHIPS Networks
32.
© CHIPS Networks
33.
Selection of a
research areas Formulating final statement of research problem Reviewing the literature & theories Delimiting the research topic Evaluating the research problem © CHIPS Networks
34.
Selection of a
research area: Formulate of a research problem begins with selection of a broad research topic from personal experience, literature, previous research, & theories in which researcher is interested & has significance for his profession. © CHIPS Networks
35.
REVIEWING LITERATURE &
THEORIES: After getting a broad idea for research, he or she needs to review the literature & theories. Literature is reviewed to know what has already been done in this selected areas of research. Review of theories provides an opportunity for researcher to plan a research problem to contribute towards either testing or development of a theory/conceptual model. © CHIPS Networks
36.
DELIMITING THE RESEARCH
TOPIC: In this step, researcher proceeds from a general area of interest to more specific topic of research to conduct a study. For example, initially a researcher decide to conduct a study on Beauty Products; later in this stage researcher limits it to specific research topic ‘a study on perception of women about Deodorant in selected rural communities of Kollam district, Kerala’. In this stage, a researcher clearly identifies variables, population, & setting of research study. © CHIPS Networks
37.
EVALUATING THE RESEARCH
PROBLEM Once researcher is clear about the specific research problem, next the research problem must be carefully evaluated for its significance, research ability and feasibility. Feasibility of the research problem should be evaluated for time, cost, availability of subjects & resources, administrative & peer support, ethical consideration and researcher’s competence & interest. © CHIPS Networks
38.
FORMULATING FINAL STATEMENT
OF RESEARCH PROBLEM: After establishing the significance, research ability, & feasibility, then researcher finally formulates a final statement of a research problem. A statement of research problem could be in declarative or interrogative format © CHIPS Networks
39.
a. Declarative format: In
this format, a research problem is stated in declarative statement. For example: ‘A descriptive study on prevalence of bedsores among unconscious patients admitted in intensive care unit of Travancore Medical College, Kollam’. ‘A exploratory study on contributing factors of maternal mortality in selected rural communities of Ayathil Village, Kollam district -Kerala’. © CHIPS Networks
40.
b. Interrogative format: In
interrogative format, a research problem is stated in question form. For example: ‘What is the effect of ginger on morning sickness on pregnant women in selected urban communities of Kollam district, Kerala. © CHIPS Networks
41.
The choice of
either of these two types of format formulation of a research problem depends on the researcher’s preference & institutional policies. Declarative format much popular among researchers. © CHIPS Networks
