    The first challenge of a researcher is to identify a research topic. A research topic is a problem, intellectual stimulus, or general question about relationships between variables. Researchers should consider prevailing theories, observations, interests, existing problems, community needs, related studies, and expert advice when selecting a research topic. An ideal research topic is novel, significant, interesting, modest in scope, clear, specific, aligned with the researcher's skills and resources, and feasible to complete within budget and timeline constraints.
