The document discusses research problems, purposes, questions, and hypotheses. It defines a research problem as a situation needing improvement or a discrepancy between current and desired states. The purpose is a clear statement of the study's specific goal. A good research problem is interesting, feasible, researchable, significant, and expresses a relationship between variables that can be empirically tested. Research questions guide data collection by describing or examining relationships among variables. Hypotheses predict outcomes based on independent and dependent variables and are testable statements about their relationship. The document also discusses evaluating problems and criteria for good hypotheses.
The document discusses the process of selecting, refining, and defining research problems. It begins by distinguishing between a research topic (a broad area of interest) and a research problem (a specific unsatisfactory situation that requires investigation). A good research problem identifies a knowledge gap within the research topic. The document provides examples of how to write a problem statement, research purpose statement, and research question. It also discusses developing a research hypothesis and the different types of hypotheses. The overall process involves narrowing a topic to a clearly defined research problem.

The World Testifies Of Data And Our Understanding Of It EssaySandy Harwell
The document discusses qualitative research methods. It defines qualitative research as exploring and describing phenomena through subjective and inductive strategies. Some key points made include:
- Qualitative research aims to answer questions about why and how things occur.
- There are three main purposes: exploratory, explanatory, and descriptive. Exploratory research discovers patterns in phenomena, while explanatory research identifies relationships shaping phenomena and descriptive research documents phenomena of interest.
- Qualitative research relies on non-experimental and phenomenological approaches to collect data through open-ended questions and observations.
Introduction
In life, there are universal laws that govern everything we do. These laws are so perfect that if you were to align yourself with them, you could have so much prosperity that it would be coming out of your ears. This is because God created the universe in the image and likeness of him. It is failure to follow the universal laws that causes one to fail. The laws that were created consisted of the following: ·
Law of Gratitude: The Law of Gratitude states that you must show gratitude for what you have. By having gratitude, you speed your growth and success faster than you normally would. This is because if you appreciate the things you have, even if they are small things, you are open to receiving more.
Law of Attraction: The Law of Attraction states that if you focus your attention on something long enough you will get it. It all starts in the mind. You think of something and when you think of it, you manifest that in your life. This could be a mental picture of a check or actual cash, but you think about it with an image.
Law of Karma: the Law of Karma states that if you go out and do something bad, it will come back to you with something bad. If you do well for others, good things happen to you. The principle here is to know you can create good or bad through your actions. There will always be an effect no matter what.
Law of Love: the Law of Love states that love is more than emotion or feeling; it is energy. It has substance and can be felt. Love is also considered acceptance of oneself or others. This means that no matter what you do in life if you do not approach or leave the situation out of love, it won't work.
Law of Allowing: The Law of Allowing states that for us to get what we want, we must be receptive to it. We can't merely say to the Universe that we want something if we don't allow ourselves to receive it. This will defeat our purpose for wanting it in the first place.
Law of Vibration: the Law of Vibration states that if you wish on something and use your thoughts to visualize it, you are halfway there to get it. To complete the cycle you must use the Law of Vibration to feel part of what you want. Do this and you'll have anything you want in life.
For everything to function properly there has to be structure. Without structure, our world, or universe, would be in utter chaos. Successful people understand universal laws and apply them daily. They may not acknowledge that to you, but they do follow the laws. There is a higher power and this higher power controls the universe and what we get out of it. People who know this, but wish to direct their own lives, follow the reasons. Successful people don't sit around and say "I'll try," they say yes and act on it.

Starting the Research Process
Formulating a specific, applicable research problem statement is an important step in beginning a research process. The problem statement defines the focus of the research study, dictates what methods and tools will be used, and sets the stage for all subsequent elements of the research process. Because of this, it is necessary to put a great deal of thought into the problem statement to ensure that the rest of the research process will be well planned and appropriate to the problem at hand.
This week’s Discussion asks you to identify evidence-based practice problems that can be addressed using quantitative research methods. Based on the practice problem you select, formulate a quantitative research problem statement. In this Discussion, you are also given the opportunity to evaluate your colleagues’ problem statements. Please refer to this week’s Learning Resources for appropriate and scholarly examples of research problem statements and how they inform the rest of the research process.

Title: Unlocking the Wonders of the Special Senses: Sight, Sound, Smell, Taste, and Balance
Introduction:
Welcome to our captivating SlideShare presentation on the Special Senses, where we delve into the extraordinary capabilities that allow us to perceive and interact with the world around us. Join us on a sensory journey as we explore the intricate structures and functions of sight, sound, smell, taste, and balance.
The special senses are our primary means of experiencing and interpreting the environment, each sense providing unique and vital information that shapes our perceptions and responses. These senses are facilitated by highly specialized organs and complex neural pathways, enabling us to see a vibrant sunset, hear a symphony, savor a delicious meal, detect a fragrant flower, and maintain our equilibrium.
In this presentation, we will:
Visual System (Sight): Dive into the anatomy and physiology of the eye, exploring how light is converted into electrical signals and processed by the brain to create the images we see. Understand common vision disorders and the mechanisms behind corrective measures like glasses and contact lenses.
Auditory System (Hearing): Examine the structures of the ear and the process of sound wave transduction, from the outer ear to the cochlea and auditory nerve. Learn about hearing loss, auditory processing, and the advances in hearing aid technology.
Olfactory System (Smell): Discover the olfactory receptors and pathways that enable the detection of thousands of different odors. Explore the connection between smell and memory and the impact of olfactory disorders on quality of life.
Gustatory System (Taste): Uncover the taste buds and the five basic tastes – sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami. Delve into the interplay between taste and smell and the factors influencing our food preferences and eating habits.
Vestibular System (Balance): Investigate the inner ear structures responsible for balance and spatial orientation. Understand how the vestibular system helps maintain posture and coordination, and explore common vestibular disorders and their effects.
Through engaging visuals, interactive diagrams, and insightful explanations, we aim to illuminate the complexities of the special senses and their profound impact on our daily lives. Whether you're a student, educator, or simply curious about how we perceive the world, this presentation will provide valuable insights into the remarkable capabilities of the human sensory system.

5. Introduction:
A research study begins as a problem that
a researcher would like to solve or as
a question that a researcher would like to
answer. Problem formulation is the most
important step in a research process. It
provides direction for the rest of the study.
(Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021)
6. Identifying the problem is the initial,
and one of the most significant steps in
research. The research purpose evolves
from the problem and provides direction
for the subsequent steps of the research
process(Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021).
7. Definition of the research problem:
A research problem is a "situation in need of a solution,
improvement, or alteration. OR "a discrepancy between the
way things are and the way they must to be".
(Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021)
8. Example
IMPACT OF UNIT MANAGERS’ LEADERSHIP
BEHAVIORS ON STAFF NURSES’ EMPOWERMENT
AND COMMITMENT
IN ALLAMA IQBAL TEACHING HOSPITAL
9. The research purpose is a concise, clear
statement of the specific goal or aim of
the study. The goal of a study might be to
identify, describe, explain, or predict
a solution to a clinical problem.
(Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021)
10. Objectives:
1.Determine the leadership behaviors of nurse managers.
2.Determine whether the use of a certain leadership behavior by
nurse managers make a difference in staff nurses’ job
commitment.
3.Determine whether the use of a certain leadership behavior by
nurse managers make a difference in staff nurses’
empowerment.
4.Determine the relationship between staff nurses’
empowerment and organizational commitment.
11. Problem statement specifies what is being
studied, and identifies study variables and
population
IMPACT OF UNIT MANAGERS’ LEADERSHIP
BEHAVIORS ON STAFF NURSES’ EMPOWERMENT
AND COMMITMENT
IN ALLAMA IQBAL TEACHING HOSPITAL
12. Sources of research problem:
1.Clinical experience:
The nurse's every day experience
provides a rich supply of problems for
investigation from clinical observation of
patient, his family, and charts.
(Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021)
13. 2. Nursing literature:
Ideas for studies often comes from reading the
nursing literature, including research reports, opinion
articles, and summaries of clinical issues. Research
reports may suggest problem areas indirectly; by
stimulating the reader's imagination, and directly; by
openly what additional research is needed (Denise F.
Polit and Cheryl, 2021).
14. 3. Social issues:
Topics are sometimes suggested by political issues of
relevance to health care community. Idea for study may
stem from a familiarity with social concern
(Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021)
15. 4. Theory:
a research problem and purpose could be
formulated to explore or describe a concept
in a theory such as a study to describe the
concept of self care in Orem's theory
(Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021).
16. 5. Ideas from external sources:
A research topic may be given as a
direct suggestion, for example a
faculty member may give students a
list of topics from which to choose.
(Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021)
17. 6. Replication of studies:
Reviewing the literature is a way to identify
a study to replicate. Replication involves
reproduction or repeating a study to
determine whether similar finding will be
obtained (Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021).
18. Formulating a research problem:
A research problem is one that can be
studied using quantitative or qualitative
research problems (Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021).
19. The elements for formulating a research problem
include:
Select a topic by identifying an area of
interest:
The development of a research problem is essentially a
creative process dependent upon imagination, and
insight. Once a research problem has been identified,
the researcher must then narrow down the research
topic and develop a problem statement (Denise F.
Polit and Cheryl, 2021).
20. Review the literature to determine the topic's present
level of knowledge:
A review of relevant articles may bring to light
theoretical framework, methodologies, data collection
tools, and methods of data analysis that have been used
to study the problem.
Evaluate the research problem for feasibility
(Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021)
21. How do researchers evaluate a research
problem?
The researcher can ask the following question to
evaluate the proposed problem and decide
whether it should be investigated through the
research process(Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021).
22. ♦ Is the topic interested?
An important criterion in selecting problems for research
is that they be of interest to the researcher because
interest in the problem can only be a strong motivation
for the researcher to pursue the project to its conclusion,
creativity, and with intellectual honesty
(Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021)
23. ♦ Is it feasible to conduct research on the problem?
Feasibility of follow a research problem can be
evaluated by the following criteria:
• Availability of methodology.
• Time needed to complete the study.
• Danger to life or physical and mental wellbeing of
subjects.
• Cost of the research.
• Cooperation with others (Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021).
24. ♦ Is the problem researchable? Ethical
consideration:
Not all problems are agreeable to study through
scientific investigation. Research problem is one that is
suitable for solution through that the collection and
analysis of data that exist in the real world
(Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021)
25. Is this problem significant enough?
Even though a topic may be interesting in itself, the
researcher must consider whether it is sufficiently
significant to a research study. A good nursing research
problem should have practical and/or theoretical
significant. Its solution should contribute to the
improvement of nursing care or to the advancement of
nursing as a profession (Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021).
26. Criteria of good problem statement:
There are three criteria for a good problem statement:
1. The problem should express a relation between two
or more variables.
2. The problem statement should be stated clearly.
3. The problem statement should imply the possibility of
empirical testing (applicable) (Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021).
27. Research question:
A research question is statement of a specific question
the researcher wants to answer to address the research
problem. The research questions guide the type of data
to be collected in the study. The focuses of the research
questions are description of the variables, examination
of relationships among variables, determine differences
between two or more groups regarding selected
variables (Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021)
28. Research Questions:
•What is the leadership behaviors’ of unit managers?
•What is the relationship between unit managers’
leadership behaviors and staff nurses empowerment?
• What is the relationship between staff nurses’
empowerment and staff nurses’ organizational
commitment?
29. Types of the variables:
Variable is a characteristic or attitude that
varies or differs among the persons or
objects being studied. There are two types
of variable; dependent and independent
variable (yadav, 2010).
30. 1. Independent variable :
is the variable that is believed to influence or cause the
dependent variable. In an experimental study the
independent variable is the treatment or intervention that
the researcher manipulates (yadav, 2010).
31. 2. Dependent variable :
is the outcome, response, or behavior that the
researcher wants to predict or explain. Or it is criterion
variable that is hypothesized to be caused by another
variable (yadav, 2010).
32. Research hypothesis:
The hypothesis translates the research problem and
purpose into a clear explanation or predication of the
expected results or outcomes of the study and includes
the variables to be manipulated or measured.
(yadav, 2010)
33. The hypothesis is defined as statement of the expected
relationship between dependent and independent
variables, or it is a researcher predication of the
outcomes of the research study based on the research
.
variables.
(yadav, 2010)
34. Question invites an answer and help to focus the
researcher's and the reader's attention on the kinds of
data that would have to be collected to provide that
answer (Denise F. Polit and Cheryl, 2021).
35. Purpose of the research hypothesis:
• Identify variables to be studies.
• Identify population to be examined.
• Identify types of research to be conducted.
• Direct measurement of variables (yadav, 2010).
36. 1. It is a declarative sentence.
2. It is brief and clearly stated.
3. It identifies at least two variables.
4. It states an expected relationship between
variables
5. It states the nature relationship between variables
(positive, or negative).
6. Implies that the predicated relationship can be
tested (yadav, 2010).
7.
37. Types of hypothesis:
1. Associative versus causal hypothesis.
2. Simple versus complex hypothesis.
3. Non directional versus directional
hypothesis.
4. Null versus research hypothesis.
(yadav, 2010)
38. 1. Associative versus Causal Hypothesis.
a. Associative hypothesis:
Identify relationship among variables in a study but do
not indicate a cause or a relationship between variables.
Associated hypothesis are usually expressed as:
•Variable X is related to variable Y and Z in a specific
population (yadav, 2010).
39. •Variable X increases as variable Y increases in a
specific population. (Predicts a positive relationship).
•Variable X decreases as variable Y decreases in a
specific population. (Predicts a positive relationship).
•Variable X increases as variable Y decreases in a
specific population. (Predicts an inverse relationship).
(yadav, 2010)
40. b. causal hypothesis:
Identify a cause and effect interaction between the
dependent and independent variable. The independent
variable is manipulated by the researcher to cause an
effect on the dependent variable (yadav, 2010).
41. 2. Simple versus Complex Hypothesis:
a) Simple hypothesis:
Researcher predicts the relationship between one
independent variable and one dependent variable.
b) Complex hypothesis:
Researcher predicts the relationship among two or more
independent variables and two or more dependent
variables (yadav, 2010).
42. 3. Nondirectional versus Directional Hypotheses:
a) Nondirectional hypotheses:
The researcher states that a relationship exists but does
not predict the nature of the relationship. e.g. there will
be a relationship between self concept and suicidal
behavior (yadav, 2010).
43. b) Directional hypotheses:
The researcher predicts or states the natural (positive or
negative) of the interaction between two or more
variables.
Directional hypotheses are developed from theoretical
statement, finding from previous studies and clinical
experience. e.g. there will a positive relationship
between trust and self disclosure in marital relationship.
(yadav, 2010)
44. 4. Null hypotheses:
The null hypothesis used when the researcher believes
there is no relationship between two variables. e.g.
there will no difference between men and women in
knowledge about HIV transmission routes
(Manoj Kumar Yadav)
