Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of the theoretical framework in research?

  • To collect data
  • To summarize the findings
  • To draft the initial proposal
  • To provide a basis for including variables and testing relationships (correct)

  • Abstract

Chapter 1: The Problem and Its Settings

  • Introduction
  • Statement of the problem
  • Theoretical/Conceptual Framework
  • Research Hypothesis
  • Scope and Delimitations
  • Significance of the study
  • Definition of terms

Introduction

  • Answers the question: What do you intend to do and why?
  • 1-2 pages
  • Research gap
  • Includes study objectives

Statement of the Problem

  • Stated generally and specifically (e.g., The study aims to...)

Research Questions

  • Researchable Questions:
    • Factor-relating question
    • Situation-relating question
    • Situation-producing question
  • Non-Researchable Questions:
    • Yes or no questions

Theoretical Framework

  • Basis for including variables and testing possible relationships
  • At least 10 years of study
  • Must include:
    • Title of theory
    • Author/Proponent
    • Theoretical principles
    • Relationship/relevance to the present study

Concept from Theory

  • Theory is a general statement from which a conceptual framework can be drawn

Conceptual Framework

  • Guided by a theory

Paradigm of the Study

  • Age, sex, civil status
  • Work, bullying, financial matters(column)

IPO Model

  • Input (flow of data and materials)
  • Process (all processing tasks)
  • Output (refers to the data)

Thematic Style

Dependent Variable

  • Pedagogical approaches

Hypotheses

  • Tentative answer to the research question
  • Single Hypothesis: Relationship between dependent and independent variables
  • Multiple Hypotheses: More than one hypothesis
  • Complex Hypothesis: Relationship between 2+ independent variables to 2+ dependent variables
  • Directional Hypothesis: Expected direction of relationship between independent and dependent variables
  • Non-directional Hypothesis: Does not stipulate the direction
  • Null Hypothesis: Always expressed as a negative statement
