Assignment: Theoretical and Conceptual Frameworks
Last week, you spent some time searching for and reviewing research articles related to your topic. Now, you are asked to spend some time thinking about the theoretical or conceptual framework for your study. You may already have an idea of specific theories or concepts that relate to your topic. If so, begin thinking about what pieces—or aspects—of those theories or concepts relate most to your topic and will provide the basis for your study. Also, spend some time reviewing research articles that include one or more of the same variables that you are using, and identify the theoretical or conceptual frameworks that the authors use. Doing so may give you a clearer idea of how specific theories or concepts may be used as the basis for your study.
To prepare for this Assignment, please revisit the Dissertation Checklists available at the Walden University Center for Research Quality website, which can be found through this week’s Learning Resources. Pay particular attention to the items listed under “Chapter 2.”
