○ examining relevant studies and information
○ restarting the process by re-defining the problem
need help? review these concept resources.

Explanation:

When a research team needs to refine a problem definition and choose an appropriate research design, examining existing relevant studies and information provides established frameworks, prior findings, and methodological examples. This helps them clarify the problem and select a valid research approach. Bringing in an expert is a more narrow solution, changing operational definitions does not address refining the core problem or choosing design, and restarting the process is inefficient and unnecessary when existing resources can guide refinement.

Answer:

O examining relevant studies and information
