An outline that guides the researcher in conceptualizing and conducting the research.

Refer to the fundamental components of research such as, research problem, purpose, specific questions to be addressed, conceptual framework.

Requires describing the undesirable situations related to the problem and the needed knowledge or information in order to solve the problem.

May be either framed in a quantitative (how much, how often, to what extent) or qualitative (what, why, how) manner. The possible answers to the research questions are the hypothesis, which will be either confirmed or rejected by the data collected in the study.
