Question

According to "How to Think Like a Researcher," a chapter from How to Find Out Anything, one should begin research by asking answerable questions rather than open-ended questions. Based on the guidelines in the text, which is an appropriate research question?

Answer 1

Answer: "What is the average income of a dentist in the United States?" is an appropiate research question.

Explanation: it is an appropriate research question because it has just one possible answer. The answer can either be gotten through calculation or it can be ascertained through deep inquiry.

The other questions, being open ended, gives room for different answers according to the replier's perception.
