  1. Do you think is it important that the researcher articulate, as clearly as possible, all assumptions that affect the research problem? Why or why not?
  2. Do your best to select a study topic. You could start with a theory, a personal experience, a study you already know about that you may want to replicate, or a library or Internet search. Identify the research problem that relates to your area of expertise, and show the way in which you derived the research problem. If you are studying cell biology, for example, relate the general issue to cell biology. If you are in some other field of study, relate the issue to your own discipline.
Then try to list out the main criteria that you use to review the appropriateness of your topic/research problem.
