Brief Introduction
Research Problem. This is an area of conflict, concern, or
controversy (a gap between what is wanted and what is observed).
Include the most relevant reference that supports the claim.
Research Question. According to Black (2008), this is the
foundation of your study. They are the key to your research because
they point to of where you are going, and they also signify what you
want to intend to do.
Scope and Delimitation of the Study. The extent to which the
research study area will be explored in the work and specifies the
parameters within which the study will be operating.
According to Alvesson and Sanberg (2013), “A research problem
is the main organizing principle guiding the analysis of your paper”.
It provides you a venue for expressing what you want to convey, and
it signifies three things:
a. The core subject matter of scholarly
communication
b. The means by which you arrive at the other topics
of conversation.
c. The discovery of new knowledge and
understanding.
Stating the Research Problem
• State the problem in the opening paragraph (i.e., something that
needs a solution)
• Identify an issue
– Research-based research problems
– Practical problems
• Reference the problem using the literature
• Common pitfall: defining the problem based on the solution
Types of Quantitative Research Questions
1. Descriptive. Aim to quantify the variables you are
interested in.
Question: What are the most important
factors that influence the career of SHS students?
Variable : Factors influencing career choices
Group: Senior High School Student
Types of Quantitative Research Questions
2. Comparative. Aim to examine the differences between two or
more groups on one or more dependent variables.
Question: What is the difference in usage behavior
on Facebook between male and female SHS students?
Dependent Variable : Usage behavior on Facebook (e.g. photo
uploads, commenting, status changes application
usage, etc.
Group: 1.Male Senior High School Student
2. Female Senior High School Students
Types of Quantitative Research Questions
3. Relationship-based. It refers to a research design, namely
experimental research designs where it is possible to measure the
cause and effect between two or more variables.
Question: What is the relationship between study
time and exam scores amongst Senior High School
Students?
Dependent Variable : Exam scores
Independent Variable : Study time
Group: Senior High School Student
Guidelines for Writing
1. Pose a question
2. Begin with “how”, “what”, “why.”
3. Specify the independent, dependent, and mediating or control
variables.
4. Use the words describe, compare, or relate to indicate the action
or connection among the variables.
5. Indicate the participants and the research site for the study.
The Scope and Delimitation of the Study
The scope identifies the boundaries of the study in
term of subject, objectives, facilities, area, time
frame, and the issues to which the research is
focused.
-The coverage of this study…
-The study consists of …
-This study is focus on …
The Scope and Delimitation of the Study
The delimitation of the study is delimiting a study
by geographic location, age, sex, population traits,
population size, or other similar considerations. It
is also identifying the constraints or weaknesses of
your study which are not within the control of the
researcher.
-The study does not cover the…
-The researcher limited this research to…
-This study is limited to …
Remember
o The problem statement implies some questions that
your research will be answering.
o The statement of the problem usually found in the
introduction chapter of a research paper.
o When you are writing a statement problem you
should know that you are looking for something
wrong or something that needs solution.
o Statement of the problem is an initial discussion of a
problem that will be going to study.
HEBREO 6:10
Matuwid ang Diyos, kaya hindi niya
lilimutin ang mga ginawa ninyo at
ang pag-ibig na ipinakita ninyo para
sa pangalan….
Do you have any questions?
