This assignment aligns to sections 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, and 6 in the Dissertation Research Plan. You will be able to use the feedback that you receive from this completed assignment to further refine your problem statement during your Residency. Address the following sections in your paper, using the headings provided: Section 1.1: Research Topic (2 paragraphs) State your research topic as you have refined it to this point. Ensure that you address the following elements in Section 1.1: First paragraph: Describe the specific topic to be studied in a clearly stated paragraph, including relevant, appropriately focused key concepts. Second paragraph: Describe the significance of the topic to your program or field (e.g., Psychology, Counseling and Human Services, Business, Technology, Public Service Leadership, Education) AND its significance to your program specialization. The Research Topic should be correctly formed: Your research topic should be appropriate for your specialization. Your research topic should use appropriate language for key concepts/phenomena. The target population should be named. The concepts should be appropriately focused. Note: You do not need to describe the relationships between or among the concepts for this assignment. You will address these relationships in Track 2. Section 1.2: Research Problem (1 paragraph) Write a brief statement that fully describes the problem being addressed. In simplified terms, the research problem should take this form: "The research literature on ________ indicates that we know ________, we know ________, but we do not know ________." The Research Problem should be correctly stated: Existing literature and key findings should be summarized. Gaps or problems in the existing literature should be clearly formulated. The Research Problem should be explicitly stated, not implied. Section 2.1: Research Problem Background (3 paragraphs) Provide a brief SUMMARY of your review of the research literature on the topic. This should include citations from at least 5 articles, but should indicate that you have performed a review of the literature (acceptable for Track 1) on the topic. This should be demonstrated by providing a statement about the body of existing literature on the topic, then, summarizing recent research findings on the topic, highlighting the findings that are most relevant to your proposed study, demonstrating how your proposed research could add to the existing literature on the topic. Be sure to provide appropriate in-text citations and include references in the reference section.

Important Note: This week contains a graded Discussion and an ungraded Collaboration Lab.This week’s readings discuss conditional probabilities, conditional odds, logits, odds ratios, relative risk, and slopes. These can all be confusing terms but the good news is that all these values have some relationship to each other. Researchers have their own opinions on which values makes the most sense to report.By Day 3In a 2- to 3-paragraph post, construct a persuasive argument for the value (conditional probability, odds, odds ratio, etc.) that, intuitively, makes the most sense for you to report as a result to your audience. Be sure to provide a specific rationale for your choice.
