  1. Your purpose statement and problem statement should be specific enough that the reader can glean both the independent and dependent variables. It’s generally a good idea to map this out in a conceptual framework. For example:

How does the implementation of software process improvement (SPI) initiatives affect project success?

In this statement, SPI is the independent variable (IV) and project success is the dependent variable (DV). This simplicity is important because it shapes your research questions, hypotheses and data collection for the study. If the problem/purpose statement is muddled or overly complicated, then it may be difficult for the reader to follow the methodology and understand the results in a clear manner.

  1. If you are looking at hypothesis testing, then there needs to be a null and an alternative hypothesis. The null and alternative should consider the population and sample size as well as the alpha value for the study. This will drive your “p-value” regarding the rejection of the null or the rejection of the alternative hypothesis
  2. Always consider how you will be collecting the data. Begin with the end in mind here. If you design a problem statement but can’t show a feasible path to collect the data in the business environment the study won’t accomplish its goal(s).
  3. Spend some time on your conceptual framework—it will help you work “upstream” and “downstream” in the study
