Which of the following statements is correct?

AResearch objectives should be pin-pointed and clear ✓ Correct

BAnother word for a research problem is a variable

CObjectives never need to be written down

DA hypothesis and an objective are the same thing

Correct answer: (A) Research objectives should be pin-pointed and clear

Explanation

Research objectives should be pin-pointed and clear so that the study stays focused and directed.

A research problem is not another word for a variable, the two are distinct concepts.

Objectives must be written down to guide design and reporting, not left unstated.

A hypothesis and an objective are not the same, one predicts and one sets the aim.

Clear objectives translate the broad problem into specific, achievable targets.

Each objective should logically flow from the statement of the problem.
