Unit 3: Constructing a Research Framework L esson 1 Creating a Conceptual Framework and Defining Terms
How can you best construct a conceptual framework for your research? ‹#›
‹#› Construct a conceptual framework based on a research topic of interest. Apply the appropriate definition for terms used in the study. ‹#›
‹#› ‹#›
Conceptual Framework Conceptual framework offers an illustration of how the entire research process will be explored, and explains the relationships of the concepts in the study. ‹#›
Significance of the Conceptual Framework ‹#› guides the researchers to construct the study according to their perspective highlights the significance of the study
How can a conceptual framework benefit your research? ‹#›
Research Frameworks Theoretical framework refers to the theory where the researcher based their study. Conceptual framework is the synthesized ideas and concepts from different related sources. ‹#›
‹#› ‹#›
‹#› A theoretical framework is based on an established theory whereas the conceptual framework is an illustration of the researcher’s viewpoint of the study.
How to construct a conceptual framework ‹#› Finalize the research topic. Choose a topic that is based on your interest and academic strand .
How to construct a conceptual framework ‹#› 2. Conduct a literature review . The literature review must be credible and scientific .
‹#› It is best to consult published journals for your research to ensure that studies are credible, recent, and up-to-date.
How to construct a conceptual framework ‹#› 3 . Decide which variables are to be investigated. Distinguish the main variables to be studied and identify possible relationships based on the gathered literature.
How to construct a conceptual framework ‹#› 4 . Construct the conceptual framework. Create the conceptual framework using the related studies. Main variables and the research process must be emphasized.
What counts as a “good” conceptual framework? ‹#›
Example ‹#› ‹#›
Example ‹#› ‹#›
Defining Terms ‹#›
Definition of Terms Defining terms is necessary to establish boundaries on how certain terms will be used in the study. ‹#›
Conceptual and Operational Definitions ‹#› Conceptual definitions are the theoretical or abstract meaning of a concept. Operational definitions refer to how a variable was used or measured in the study.
Example of a Conceptual Definition ‹#› ‹#› Profit is the difference between the amount earned and the amount spent in buying, operating, or producing something.
Example of an Operational Definition ‹#› ‹#› Profit refers to the amount earned in selling garments for the month of January.
Example of a Conceptual Definition ‹#› ‹#› Self-esteem is the degree of one’s own worth and respect.
Example of an Operational Definition ‹#› ‹#› Self-esteem refers to the score gained in the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES).
Example of a Conceptual Definition ‹#› ‹#› Current refers to the movement of electricity in a particular direction.
Example of an Operational Definition ‹#› ‹#› Current is the rate at which an electric charge flows measured in Amperes.
What are the consequences of not precisely defining the terms used in the study? ‹#›
Develop a conceptual framework for the given variables below. Then, define the terms using conceptual and operational definitions: online learning classroom learning academic performance of students Practice ‹#›
Quick Check Why is it necessary to conduct first a literature review before constructing the conceptual framework? ‹#›
Which is more important, the theoretical framework or the conceptual framework? Why? Quick Check ‹#› ‹#› ‹#› ‹#› ‹#›
Pollution refers to the amount of carbon dioxide emission in Metro Manila. Pollution is a substance that has harmful or poisonous effects in the environment. Quick Check ‹#› ‹#› ‹#› ‹#› ‹#›
‹#› The conceptual framework integrates concepts and ideas gathered from different sources. The theoretical framework of a study refers to the existing theory where the researchers based their study.
‹#› Both the conceptual and theoretical framework give direction to the study by emphasizing the main constructs and concepts in a research study. The two types of definitions used in a study are the conceptual definition and operational definition .
