Question

A research paper should provide a comprehensive overview of a broad topic. True or False?

Answer 1

Answer:

false.

Explanation:

A research paper should aim at providing a detailed overview of a properly defined topic that is focalized enough so as to make the research feasible. If one chooses a very broad topic, it is very likely that one will not be able to make a coherent and round research because the topic itself will exceed the possibilities of a single researcher and the space and time constraints that any research demands. It is best to focus on narrow topics that can be exhausted during the research process rather than broad topics.
