Question 12

Guidelines in choosing and developing a Research Framework

Theoretical Framework

Answer 12

• Revisit the information given by your related literature and identify if there are potential theories or knowledge that may be use or anchored to the possible outcome of your study.
• With the use of these information, you can now create a plan or blueprint for your research study.
• You also need to comprehend and considerthe variables that will be significant in your study and their relationship with another.

Question 13

Guidelines in choosing and developing a Research Framework

Conceptual Framework

Answer 13

•  Refer to your research questions or objectives to identify the essential themes in your study. Look for additional theories that involve the same principle and see how they
  relate to one another. Make a concept map of your conceptual framework, utilizing the existing theories as a reference. If there are topics which are not included in the theories you have chosen and you know that it is
  essential to your study, you can include it.
• You have to make a written explanation on the concepts that are being incorporated and their impact to one another after you have made the first draft of your conceptual framework. Moreover, you have to revisit your research questions and conceptual framework if they are aligned.
• It is important to remember that developing a conceptual framework is a process. This means that as you study more material and research more theories, it may still be refined
  or updated. The research hypothesis may be stated at the end of the conceptual framework in some situations.

Question 14

It is a visual representation of information that helps show the relationship between ideas.

Answer 14

Concept map

Question 15

It begin with the main topic and then branch out into sub-topics, reflecting the connection of all the elements in the study.

Answer 15

Concept Map

Question 16

Purpose of concept map

Answer 16

It is developing or creating your plan or blueprint so that you will be guided on the flow and direction of your research
study.

Question 17

It is the “presumed cause” of the research problem.

Answer 17

independent variable

Question 18

It can be purposely manipulated by the researcher,
depending on the focus of the study. It maybe can cause, influence, or affect the result or outcome
of the study.

Answer 18

Independent Variable

Question 19

It refers to the variable that is stable and unaffected by the other variables you are trying to measure.

Answer 19

Independent, experimental, treatment, antecedent, or predictor variable.

Question 20

It is the “presumed effect” of the research problem.

Answer 20

dependent variable

Question 21

This variable is altered as a result of experimental
manipulation of the independent variable or variables.

Answer 21

dependent variable

Question 22

Other name for dependent variable

Answer 22

criterion, effect,
response, or outcome variable

Question 23

It is an independent variable which influences the direction and thestrength of the connection between independent and dependent variables.

Answer 23

moderating variable

Question 24

It is an element that exists between the independent to the dependent variable.

Answer 24

Mediating variable or Intervening variable

Question 25

It is an integral part of the cause-effect relationship and helps us to understand the effects of the independent variable on the dependent variable. It is a variable that describes the effect and influence of the relationship between the variables and what is controlling that relationship.

Answer 25

mediator (or mediating) variable

Question 26

It is a special type of independent variable that can influence the dependent variable. It takes an active role in quantitative studies. Statistical procedures are used to control this variable.

Answer 26

Control Variable
