WHY THIS ARTICLE WAS CHOSENIn this advancing world with day to day newer achievements in each and every field , its very difficult to practice without updating present knowledge or any topic of interest.
To get updated and to improve knowledge for taking better decision and action, unknown answers has to be answered and is done by setting up research question. A successful research will largely depend on its research question.

A Research Question is a statement that identifies the phenomenon to be studied.
To develop a strong research question : Know the field and its literature well Important research questions in the field Areas that need further exploration Should lead to greater understanding

Knowledge about any other research already been conducted in this topic area
Has this study been done before Is the timing right for this question to be
answered Would funding sources be interested Is the target community interested Will the study have a significant impact on the
field

Already possess the required knowledge- only reinforcement is required which is termed as “cognitive resonance”.
When we do not possess the required knowledge. - A response is created within ourselves, which is termed as “cognitive dissonance”

Cognitive resonance: Brain is only a receiver. In this universe there is a core from which we gain knowledge, inspiration, and strength.

McLeod, S. A. (2014). Cognitive Dissonance. Retrieved from www.simplypsychology.org/cognitive-dissonance.html
Cognitive dissonance refers to a situation involving conflicting attitudes, beliefs or behaviors. This produces a feeling of discomfort leading to an alteration in one of the attitudes, beliefs or behaviors to reduce the discomfort and restore balance etc.
For example, when people smoke (behavior) and they know that smoking causes cancer (cognition).

Background questions usually concern conditions, and consist of two parts:
The root question (5WH)
[who, what, when, where, why, how]
Problem

FOREGROUND QUESTIONS
Knowing these will help us in making better decisions concerning specific situations.
Arise in central issues around the clinical work like about clinical findings of the patient.

Foreground Questions Concern choices, are specific to decision-making,
and are asked by more experienced clinicians who are able to use the specialized knowledge typical of experts in the subject field

SCHEDULING
Deciding whether it is appropriate to have our question answered at this very time
![Page 25: Framing research question and formulating hypothesis for](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022082210/587797131a28ab0f778b627f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

SAVING
Unsaved questions become unanswered questions.
So we must record the questions for later retrieval and searching.

RESEARCH QUESTION AND HYPOTHESIS
Well-defined research question will lead the researcher to select an appropriate study design and methodology.
Hypothesis can be defined as a logically conjectured estimation or association between two or more variables expressed in the form of a testable statement.

Hypothesis Testing
Hypothesis testing is one of the statistical method used to confirm the effect that critical few inputs have on the outputs. Hypothesis testing must be used when the inputs are measured discretely.

Hypothesis Generating
The recognition that the study was not designed for testing the involved questions in post hoc analysis.
Indicates that they can be used only as indicators of potentially new information.

Criteria for selecting a hypothesis:
The Number of Groups Being Tested Whether the Y’s are Discrete or Continuous Population Parameter Being Compared

TYPES OF HYPOTHESIS Null Hypothesis: When a hypothesis is stated negatively, it is called
a null hypothesis “no difference,” “no association” hypothesis
Alternate Hypothesis: It is the hypothesis that describes the researcher’s
statement that there exists a difference

CONCLUSION
For getting specific and correct answer to a specific question, it is necessary to have a good
research question. To design a good research question, PICO criteria is used and for selecting a question, FINER criteria is used. Scheduling and saving questions are also important to save time and other resources.
