Problem Statement and Research QuestionsThe process of articulating a problem statement and the related research questions requires a significant amount of reading and reflection. Doctoral learners at this point in the program must consider a problem to research for the dissertation and begin to articulate that problem. In this assignment, you will articulate a potential problem statement for your dissertation research and pose several potential research questions that could address the problem statement. Please note that a passing score on this assignment does not indicate an approved problem statement or research questions. You will work with your dissertation chair and methodologist to further refine and focus these items once you enter the dissertation phase of the program.General Requirements:Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:· Refer to the topic you presented in a previous course.TOPIC: Factors Influencing Utilization of Public Mental Health ServicesPlease find ATTACHED- 10 Strategic Points with already used Research Questions and Problem Statement and many more useful information.· Doctoral learners are required to use APA style for their writing assignments.· Refer to the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association for specific guidelines related to doctoral level writing.

Four potential research questions that could guide your collection of data in addressing the problem statement. Reflect upon the who, what, where, when, why, and how of the problem statement to gain a broader perspective on the problem statement. What analytical questions need to be asked related to the data that must be collected to address the defined gap?
