The set of conditions that produced the problem and may influence its present and future character.
M.C. JACKSON writes: “A problem can be defined to include the individual or group of individuals who are the would-be problem solvers, the system(s) within which the problem lie, and the set of relevant participants. This set contains all those who can make decisions that affect the behavior of the system(s)” (1992, p.27).
