Conceptual Framework

- it represent the researcher’s synthesis of literature on how to explain a

phenomenon.

- it is the researcher’s understanding of how the particular variables in

his study connect with each other.

- it serves as a “map” or “rudder” that will guide you towards realizing

the objectives.

- it is primarily a conception or model of what is out there that you plan

to study.

Steps in creating a conceptual framework

1. Study your topic

2. Create a thesis statement
3. Identify the concepts involved in the study
4. Relate each concepts
5. Generate a conceptual framework.
