Stages of defining a problem.

Structuring the Research Problem

CUANTITATIVE and CUALITATIVE

A quantitative experimental design uses deductive reasoning to arrive at a verifiable hypothesis.

Qualitative research designs use inductive reasoning to propose a research statement.

definition of problems

basic elements for the analysis of problems

+participation of involved

+interaction with other people

+interests in terms of value judgments

+is a requirement to solve

+correct approach

+not formulate a problem with a lack of solution

like the problem tree

+ordered inventory of problems

+Group or separate

+Prioritize the problems encountered

Defining a research problem is crucial to defining the quality of the answers. It also determines exactly the research method used.

Problem statement Examples.

Recognition

Discovery

Formulation

recognize the facts preliminarily and delimited according to some valid criterion

formulate a specific question about the causes that explain that uncertainty in order to reduce the problem to its significant core

discover the problem and how to find the solution
