What is a research question?

A research question is a clear and concise statement that identifies the focus of a research project. It is the core aspect of any research and it provides the direction for the entire study. A research question should be specific, measurable and achievable, and should aim to answer a gap in knowledge, investigate a problem or phenomenon, or explore a relationship between variables. A well-crafted research question is essential for designing a valid research methodology, determining the appropriate methods of data collection and analysis, and communicating the research findings effectively.
