Dissertation
3. HIPÓTESIS PLANTEADA, PROBLEMA O ARGUMENTACIÓN QUE SE QUIERE RESPONDER, ESTUDIAR O ANALIZAR
I am translating a doctoral dissertation. Not my field; I'm doing it for my oldest client, almost as a personal favor.
Is it as simple as "Raised hypothesis"?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks, Phil, yes, the problem with just "hypothesis" on its own is that it might be seen as part of a list: "HIPÓTESIS, PROBLEMA O ARGUMENTACIÓN..."

hypothesis raised/put forth/proposed
I'd say any of these might work just fine in this context.

Hypothesis
For this instance, I would even use the word alone, as a hypothesis exists only when it is presented/raised/put forward or proposed.
