When identifying a problem through critical thinking, urgency, importance, personal attributes and thinking styles should all be considered. I am having problems with the methods to be used during problem formulation.
I would use these methods.

1. Gather information, checking the sources for validity and accuracy.
2. Think about any conflicting information.
3. Sort out my prejudices and preconceived ideas.
4. Arrive at conclusions based on evidence.
