Wow! Hmmm?! I need to know this!
Do I really care? Why?
Does anybody know already?
How could I find out?
Let’s gather some evidence!
So what have I learned?
But what if?
The answer is 42! Wow! Hmmm!?

Wow! Hmmm?! I need to know this! Title
I need to tell everybody! Abstract
Do I really care? Why? Introduction I.
Does anybody know already? Introduction II.
How could I find out? Methods
Let’s gather some evidence! Data
So what have I learned? Results
But what if? Discussion

Determining research question
Feasible:
Adequate number of subjects
Adequate technical expertise
Affordable in time and money
Manageable in scope
Interesting: Getting the answer intrigues investigator,
peers and community
Novel: Confirms, refutes or extends previous findings
Ethical: Amenable to a study that institutional review
board will approve
Relevant:
To scientific knowledge
To clinical, societal, technological policy/applications
To future research
Determining research question: guiding questions
Questions that may help:
Determining research question: guiding questions
Questions that may help:
What exactly do you mean by ...?
Who has already studied this question? What did they
find?
Where is the boundary between known and unknown in
this area? Where is the knowledge gap?
How could ... be determined/measured? Which methods
can be used? How they differ? What are their limitations?
How can the answer distilled from the data? How will I
analyze it?
Assignments
