Conceptualization research problem may include several activities, such as stating the problem, defining the objectives, purposes and terms to be used in the study. Research problem originates from a situation of need, where unresolved difficulties occur. Conceptualization of research problem begins with identification of problem area and research problem, and definition of problem. The problem under study is written and called as “Statement of Problem”. The problem should be significant to nursing, practical in nature, feasible and the findings add to the knowledge of nursing.  The researcher need to be interested in doing the study and should possess required qualification. Research questions may arise from personal intuition and personal observation of the environment or personal beliefs, but ideas are more often developed through interaction with others. Similarly, research questions tend to arise from an examination of others’ work which can be found in the research journals and textbooks of deferent scientific disciplines.
