Conceptual Framework
Review your miniature literature review 2 page conceptual framework. Use the PDF about conceptual frameworks to create an integrated conceptual framework and an accompanying diagram.

The conceptual framework (CF) provides your view of the problem and facilitates exploration of the purpose and research questions driving the study.

Your goal is to review the literature and reflect upon experiences as to identify factors enabling the existence of the problem. You express each factor and then link them into a system facilitating exploration of the purpose and research questions driving the study.

The first step is to identify the factors you want to integrate into the CF. Each factor may be illustrated by:

· Defining and describing the factor.

· Citing or explaining how you got the factor.

· Explaining how the factor behaves.

The problem described by the factors likely requires them to interact. For example, if you see two people arguing, then you may deduce that the argument is the result of meshing the people, perspectives, attitudes, and beliefs into a problem resulting in the argument. Such a meshing of factors establishes the framework for an argument—and your study! The framework allows the factors to interact as a system giving rise to the problem while helping you grapple with the purpose of the study and research questions.

All of this thinking and visualization leads to the rough outline for a CF:

Factor 1

· Defining and describing the factor.

· Citing or explaining how you got the factor.

· Explaining how the factor behaves.

Factor 2

· Defining and describing the factor.

· Citing or explaining how you got the factor.

· Explaining how the factor behaves.

Factor 3

· Defining and describing the factor.

· Citing or explaining how you got the factor.

· Explaining how the factor behaves.

…and so on with the remaining factors…

The Framework

· Explain how the factors interact and form a system allowing your study to tackle the research

questions, problem, and purpose of the study.

Notice how the last part requires you to assemble the factors into a framework (or system)!
