A research question example for independent study assignment

A research question example for independent study assignment

For independent study, research questions could be stated in the following ways, e.g.:

Format 1

Research question 1: Is there a correlation between capital structure (the x variable) and return on equity (the y variable) for the manufacturing companies listed on the HK stock exchange?

or

Format 2

Research question 1 is to test the validity of the following hypothesis:

There is no correlation between capital structure (the x variable) and the return on equity (the y variable) for the manufacturing companies listed on the HK Stock Exchange? (the null hypothesis). That is the correlation coefficient is 0

There is some correlation between capital structure (the x variable) and the return on equity (the y variable) for the manufacturing companies listed on the HK Stock Exchange. (the alternative hypothesis). That is the correlation coefficient is not 0.
