Remember, your research will show you an answer to your research question (which could be no answer, too). If it doesn't, either your research is flawed or your question needs revised, or, perhaps your research proved no is the answer to that research question.
As an example of social research:
Let's say you want to show that men prefer to use their own uni-sex bathroom. You block the men's room with "Out of Order" signs. Then, you observe and count how many men use the women's restroom versus how many men go searching for another men's restroom. You might find all the men still use the women's restroom. It still is "an answer" to your research question. But you might decide, too, that you need to study in more locations or also study women's reactions to only having access to the men's restroom. You might also find comparative studies from 1965 that do show uni-sex preference and decide to replicate the 1965 study to see if you obtain the same results now.
"Start looking for information" is the step that comes directly after deciding on a research question.
Come up with your own conclusions based on the patterns you see in your research data
you will often learn the answer after you have compiled and analyzed your data
Start looking for information
Research. Either you have already done the research and you have the knowledge to answer the question, or you go dig for the knowledge by doing the research.
There is a lot of research being done to find a cure for cancer. This research includes studying current cancer cells, genetics, and using experimental treatments.
A hypothesis is more like a pre-research prediction of what you will find out rather than a question
When you asked your question, you asked a reference question. You are asking me for information. That is a reference question requesting information from me. I am your reference material to answer this particular question. For other types of research, you need different types of reference material. If you are doing research on how to find or make something, a good reference can show you how others have done the same thing and problems they have run across in the past. Using such material is called avoiding "Reinventing the wheel." If you are doing original research, you need to know what others have done in a similar vein. That way you can show why what you are doing is original.
Most research can be done by Library of Congress staff, for a fee.
General knowledge from experience, and research.
No, but there is research being done worldwide to find one.
When it takes some looking to find answers.
doing research for this question
It is the number that youve hat to square to get to that number.
look... I'm sorry but you can find it nowhere i know I've searched and done my research
If you find evidence that supports opposing conclusions based on your research question, weigh the evidence for both conclusions and pick the one you think is most convincing.
