Present that problem in a general thesis statement stating why the problem is important enough to study. (Estimated length – one paragraph)

 

Rationale for the Research: You will need to explain what the study intends to accomplish. What rationale was used to determine the importance for this study? How does your study relate to larger issues? Make a persuasive statement to justify the reason for the study. Why is the study important? To whom is it important?
