To investigate means you are now going to search for the relevant data related to the phenomenon to be studied to find answers to the research questions you have posed. However, to examine a particular condition means you already have the the data regarding the phenomenon but you want to test for it's validity, interpretation or the diverse perspectives people have about it.

Please, can you send me your research title and research objectives so that I can help you fine-tune it? Best regards
