- <p><span lang="EN-US">Every research should have a scope that will guide the researcher in their study. This concise guide article</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">present</span><span lang="EN-US">s</span><span lang="EN-US"> some components of a research scope. This is done by using “Afolaranmi’s Five ‘W’ Questions” (that is, what, who, where, why, and when) to explain these components. The </span><span lang="EN-US">five "W" </span><span lang="EN-US">questions deal with key concepts or variables in the research; people or </span><span lang="EN-US">(sample drawn from the) </span><span lang="EN-US">population of the study; location of the study; rationale behind the study; and time frame of the study. Using</span><span lang="EN-US">)</span><span lang="EN-US"> research design and based on a suggested working title and aim of a study, these questions are explained with samples for answers to each question. An image was also provided to illustrate these principles graphically. A sample of a full scope was also provided to demonstrate the principles. It was concluded that using these “W” questions would help researchers to grasp the full essence of their study. Therefore, every researcher should clearly define and state their scope by answering the “Afolaranmi’s Five ‘W’ Questions”</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">presented in the article.</span></p>
