What is the relationship between the title and the statement of the problem in research?

A well written title conceptualizes the problem and therefore can serve as an advanced organizer for the researcher and reader. Eventually a title gets published and serves as a means of attracting others to read the research.

What is the difference between research title topic and problem?

A topic is something to read and obtain information about whereas a problem is something to solve or framed as a question that must be answered.

How would you describe the relationship between a research topic a research question and a set of hypotheses?
