serves as the building blocks for the foundation of the

framework
2 types of research framework:
theoretical framework and conceptual
framework.
is formulated from existing theories and as the foundation of the study. The present study can adopt the original model used by the cited theorist. However, the
researcher can modify the variables of the original framework to better suit the study,
theoretical framework
- derived from a combination of theories or parts of theories.
- framework guides the researcher in synthesizing the different theories used in
formulating a new one.
conceptual framework
is more suitable for student researchers than the conceptual framework because of the former's simpler approach.
theoretical framework
4 elements of Theoretical Framework
Relevant theories.
Review of related literature.
Review of related studies.
Paradigm of the study.
theories that are partially or fully relevant to the present
study and are discussed to provide a basis for the variables being tested.
Relevant theories.
are published materials that compare the study with
existing knowledge on the research topic. This part defines, classifies, and facilitates objective comprehension of the variables being studied.
Review of related literature.
part includes the theses or dissertations on research
topics carrying the same variables. The findings from the previous studies define the approach that the researcher took in measuring the variables.
