CORONA MARTINEZ, Luis A. and FONSECA HERNANDEZ, Mercedes. The hypotheses in the research project: when yes, when no?. Medisur [online]. 2023, vol.21, n.1, pp. 269-273. Epub Feb 27, 2023. ISSN 1727-897X.

The article aims to clarify for young researchers when this category should be declared in a research. It is suggested to use the scope of the research (exploratory, descriptive, correlational or explanatory) for the decision of whether or not to use hypotheses in a research project. Conditions that determine the use of hypotheses specifically in descriptive studies, the most frequently carried out by residents are detailed.
