The document outlines the key components of a research proposal, including the background of the study, statement of the problem, research questions, significance of the study, definition of terms, theoretical framework, and limitations of the study. The background establishes context and rationale, while the problem statement describes the issue being addressed. Research questions guide the investigation and define the scope. The significance and theoretical framework sections explain the study's potential contributions and foundations. Definitions clarify terminology, and limitations acknowledge shortcomings.

1. CHAPTER 1
RESEARCH PROPOSAL
COMPONENTS

2. Background of the Study
The background of the study is the first section of the
paper and establishes the context underlying the research. It
contains the rationale, the key problem statement, and a brief
overview of research questions that are addressed in the rest of
the paper.
Statement of the Problem
A problem statement is an explanation in research that
describes the issue that is need in the study. What a problem
is the research attempting to address? Having a problem
statement allows the reader to quickly understand the purpose
and intent of the research.

3. Research Question(s)
A research is a specific inquiry which the research seeks
to provide a response to. It resides at the end core systematic
investigation and it helps you to clearly define a path for the
research process.
A research question is usually the first step in any
research project. Basically it is the primary interrogation point
of your research and it sets the pace of your work.

4. Significance of the Study
Significance of the study in research refers to the
potential importance, relevance, or impact of the research
findings. It outlines how the research contributes to the
existing body of knowledge., what gaps it fills, or what new
understanding it brings to a particular field of study.
Definition of Terms
The definition of term is a statement expressing the
essential nature of something that enables a common
understanding of key terms within and improvement team

5. Theoretical Framework
A theoretical framework is a foundational review of
existing theories that serves as a roadmap for developing the
arguments you will use in your work.
Theories are developed by researchers to explain
phenomena, draw connections, and make predictions. In a
theoretical framework , you explain the existing theories that
support your research.

6. Limitations of the Study
The limitations of the study are its flaws or shortcomings
which could be the result of unavailability of resources, small
sample size, flawed methodology, etc. No study is completely
flawless or inclusive of all possible aspects.
