Purpose
for the
Lesson

A research title, or research project is a product of real world observations,

dilemmas, wide reading, selective viewing (television programs, films,
documentaries, video, etc.) meaningful interactions with significant others, and
deep reflection.

As you think of a research title, it is in your reflective moments that rich ideas
flow one after the other and when they do, questions about your own ideas arise.
C. Presentin It’s like you “brainstorming” with yourself. You first come up with broad ideas,
g then, further thinking and reflection will help you shape the idea, the research
Examples topic or research title into a specific one, that is, a researchable one.
/Instance
s of the Great care must be taken in the formulation of the research title. It must clearly
New reflect the topic of investigation. It must be original, clear, concise, or specific.
Lesson
The title occupies an exclusive place in the text as it immediately captures the
reader’s attention and influences his/her decision to read the paper or not. It’s
a good idea to take advantage of this fact and create a concise, informative, and
catchy title that will draw the reader in.

When you finally decide on a research topic, make sure that your research
topic and research questions match.
EXPLORE
Characteristics of a good research title
In 2005, rhetoric scholars Hairson and Keene in their book Successful
Writing came up with four goals that any good title accomplishes.
1. A good title predicts the content of the research (Specific)
D. Discussin
g New • A good title informs the reader accurately about the contents of the
Concepts article. The main responsibility of a title is to explain what the article is
and about without misleading or establishing wrong expectations. Make
Practicing sure it doesn’t include anything that your reader won’t be able to find in
New Skills the paper.
#1 • The title summarizes the main idea or ideas of your study. A
good title contains the fewest possible words needed to adequately
describe the content and/or purpose of your research paper.

Example:

Page 2 of 7
 Broad Topic: Bullying (What do you think the study is about? It’s very
hard to guess because the title is too broad and uninformative and
needs to be narrowed down to something more specific).

Specific Topic: “The Impact of School Bullying On Students’

Academic Achievement”

Broad Topics Specific Topics

Lack of Self-Confidence
Smoking Hazards
Marketable Popular Garment
Brand
Human Immunodeficiency
Virus
Lack of Self-confidence in
Adolescents: Root Causes,
Manifestations and Intervention
Health Hazards of Direct and Indirect
Smoking: Prevention and Cure
Marketability of a Popular Garment
Brand: A Case Study
HIV: Causes, Prevention, Treatment
and Care

2. A good title should be interesting to the reader.

• To make the title interesting, attention-grabbing, and easy to read, use

words that create a positive impression and stimulate the reader’s
interest.
• Be careful if you want to include a catchy phrase. Even though stylistic
devices make titles witty and more attractive, such titles may be not
clear. When trying to add some zest, make sure your title conveys
information in an unambiguous and precise manner, communicates the
message clearly, and doesn’t encourage multiple interpretations.
• To attract wider audience, choose words carefully, avoid technicalities
and specific vocabulary.

E. Discussin Techniques for Narrowing down a Topic
g New
Concepts 1. Examine the literature. Published articles are an excellent source of
and ideas for research questions. They are usually at an appropriate level of
Practicing specificity and suggest research questions that focus on the following:
New Skills a. Replicate a previous research project exactly or with slight
#2 variations.
Page 4 of 7
 b. Explore unexpected findings discovered in previous research.
c. Follow suggestions an author gives for future research at the end of
the article.
d. Extend am existing explanation or theory to a new topic or setting.
e. Challenge findings or attempt to refute a relationship.
f. Specify the intervening process and consider linking relations.
2. Talk over ideas with others.
a. Ask people who are knowledgeable about the topic for questions
about it that they have thought of.
b. Seek out those who hold opinions that differ from yours on the
topic and discuss possible research questions with them.
3. Apply to a specific context
a. Focus the topic on a specific historical period or time period.
b. Narrow the topic to a specific society or geographical unit.
c. Consider which subgroups or categories of people/units are
involved and whether there are differences among them.
4. Define the aim or desired outcome of the study.
a. Will the research question be for an exploratory, explanatory, or
descriptive study?
b. Will the study involve applied or basic research?
