Question: I need to select and present a researchable topic for a research proposal. Basically, I need help framing a potential problem statement which explains what topic I will be researching. I need to identify a very specific problem within the stated topic, having narrowed it down to a specific problem that is researchable. I also must present that problem in a general statement about the specific need for the study, including information such as - why is the problem important enough to study?
