Research Title……
In general, the researcher should avoid using words that serve no useful
purpose and can mislead indexers. Words such as “methods,” “results,”
and “investigations” should not appear in the title.
In many cases, the general problem of the research or even the specific
question that the researcher intends to answer, when rewritten in a
statement form, can serve as the title.
Research Problem
This section sets the direction of the research study as it provides the
foundation for the research hypothesis and defines what kind of research
study is suitable to address the problem.
Sources of Research Problem
CRITERIA
1. Solutions are available but not yet tested and not yet known by the
practitioner.
2. No solutions are available to answer the gap or the problem being assessed.
3. When the given answers or solutions, as well as the possible results, are
seemingly untested or are factually contradictory with each other.
4. A phenomenon requiring an explanation has occurred.
5. There are several possible and plausible explanations for the existence of an
undesirable condition.

RESEARCH PROBLEM
EXTERNALCRITERIA
1. Novelty – This refers to the practical value of the problem due to its
“newness” in the field of inquiry
2. Availability of subjects – This refers to the people with the desired
capability and willingness to participate in the study. The sample of the
study participants must be representative enough to ensure reliability and
validity of the results.

3. Support of the academic community – This refers to the assistance
given by the members of the institution, like the principal, teachers, staff,
students, and the parents, in the gathering of data and defraying the cost of
the study. Permission of those concerned for the participation in the study
of staff members, children, the aged, and the mentally challenged should
be secured.

4. Availability and adequacy of facilities and equipment – Devices
such as computers, and telephones used in undertaking the study must be
considered.
5. Ethical considerations – These include the avoidance of research
problems that pose unethical demands on the part of the research
participants.
CONSIDERATIONS IN FORMULATING A
RESEARCH PROBLEM
INTERNAL CRITERIA
1. Experience, training, and qualifications of the researcher – These
constitute the researcher’s knowledge and expertise as a result of
experience and study.
2. Motivation, interest, intellectual curiosity, and perceptiveness of the
researcher – These are essential attitudes that bring anticipated
satisfaction or enjoyment in the completion of research task.

INTERNAL CRITERIA
3. Time factor – This considers the fact that studies must be pursued
within a given time frame.
4. Costs and returns – These factors matter in choosing a research
problem. Research is an expensive undertaking. The amount of funding
needed, after all, depends on the size of the sample, the place where the
research is to be conducted, the treatment of data, and the kind of research
design.

5. Hazards, penalties, and handicaps – These depend upon the researcher’s
physical and intellectual capacity and moral judgment.
