Hi there, the process of coming up with an idea that could be developed into actionable research is one of the most difficult parts of being a student, and generally of doing research. No one here will just give you an idea. Even if we did, it probably wouldn't help. The topic you work on is something that needs to come from you. It should be something that you are personally interested in, so that you can sustain several years of research on it. You should be talking to your advisors, revisiting papers you have written for classes, and generally doing a lot of reading. By doing this, you will discover that there are some questions that interest you more than others. Once you identify those, you need to do more reading to learn the background of what is already known. Through this process, you'll also start identifying "holes" in the research, and this is where you can contribute. At that point, your advisors should be able to help you turn your ideas into a research proposal. Good luck!

Why do criminals commit crimes? Is it their broken homes, or are they just bad seeds?
