If the answers are “yes”, you are done formulating the research

question.

IMPORTANT NOTES: HYPOTHESIS
In your research, a hypothesis is not always required. Hypothesis will be only used

when you conduct a quantitative research applying the correlational and
experimental studies (those concerning with the cause of certain phenomenon or a

relationship between two or more variables under investigation). Exploratory and
descriptive research do not require any hypothesis.

Adapted from: https://www.slideshare.net/mobile/AjitDahal/is-it-necesarry-to-have-a-hypothesis-in-every-research

Useful expression for writing a hypothesis:

Use if clause in present tense to write
your hypothesis.
Ex: If teachers have a pleasing and

feel comfortable in the learning
processwhich will affect the students’
achievements.
 Use particular verbs such as:
- Hypothesize

- Suppose to
- Assume
