Introduction

In every study, researchers incorporate a research problem as a central issue in the researching process. Therefore, a researcher is incapable of conducting a study without the initial step of uncovering the research problem. When creating a research problem, the research should easily provide easily identifiable and eminent variables while accompanying formulating a hypothesis to accompany a research problem. Thus, after providing a clear definition of a research problem, the next stage involves translation of the specified problem into a research problem that unfolds how correlation between two of more population variables of study emerges. Initially, a researcher will proceed to explore the research problem, its significance, the research problem ...
