Strong dissertation research questions keep your project focused and feasible, preventing wasted data collection and costly redesigns. Weak questions delay committee approval and derail timelines.
If you end up with strong research questions that are in alignment, first, your committee is going to approve you to move forward. But even more importantly, when you move forward, you're going to move forward with a project that is doable and doable within a reasonable time period, and that's what you're looking for. What you don't want to do is have to come back and realize, oh, I've collected data, but I didn't get the data I wanted. Maybe I have to go revise my research question. Does that mean have to collect data? Again, if you start at the beginning with strong questions, you're going to avoid a lot of problems down the line.
