Detailed explanation-1: -A hypothesis is a statement that can be tested by scientific research. If you want to test a relationship between two or more variables, you need to write hypotheses before you start your experiment or data collection.
Detailed explanation-2: -The hypothesis indicates the dependent variable. During the research process, a hypothesis should be developed by the researcher at what point? The hypothesis must be developed after the research question is developed.
Detailed explanation-3: -Since the hypothesis is about how to resolve a research question, the former makes little sense without the latter. So, the question, and why it is important, should come first.
Detailed explanation-4: -When you write a hypothesis, you’re essentially making an educated guess based on scientific prejudices and evidence, which is further proven or disproven through the scientific method. The reason for undertaking research is to observe a specific phenomenon.
