PRACRES
Opposition
The following may be used to describe conceptual framework EXCEPT _____.
Output
- may be the dependent variables that is affected or influenced by the independent variable or the intervention or solution to solve the identified problem.
Input
- usually the independent variables that cause, influence, or affect
Independent Variable
It can be purposely manipulated by the researcher, depending on the focus of the study.
Conceptual Framework
like a recipe or blueprint.
Specific Question
should be enough to cover the development of the whole problem of study.
Statement of the Problem
A concise description of the issues that need to be addressed by the researcher/s which is composed of different questions that the entire study will answer.
Generate the conceptual framework
Build your conceptual framework using the variables studied within the scientific articles you have gotten read. Your problem statement is a reference in constructing the conceptual framework.
Statement of the Problem
Cannot be a yes or no question, the independent and dependent variable have to be included, the problem has to clearly be able to be tested, and the response is written clearly, and specifically
Choose your topic
Decide on what will be your research topic. It should be within the field of your specialization.
Do a literature review
Go over relevant and updated studies related to your own research. Use reliable sources of information and use appropriate documentation.
Isolate the important variables
Identify the specific variables mentioned in the literature and show their interrelationships.
Mediating Variable
It helps us to understand the effects of the independent variable on the dependent variable.
Research Framework
It is normally used as a guide for researchers so that they are more focused on the scope of their studies.
Conceptual Framework
It maps out the actions required within the course of the study, given the researchers' observations about the study and the previous knowledge of other researchers' point of view.
Conceptual Framework
It provides an outline of the plan on how to conduct the research. It is presented in a flow chart, map or diagram.
Research Questions
The conceptual framework ensures congruence with the _______.
Explored
The conceptual framework is the researcher's idea on how the research problem will have to be
Develop New Variables
The following guides the researchers in writing a conceptual framework EXCEPT:
Input-Process-Output Model
This approach is seated on the premise of acquiring essential information by converting inputs into outputs through the required processing steps in obtaining the result.
Moderating Variable
This is also called as the interaction effect.
Dependent Variable
This variable is altered as a result of experimental manipulation of the independent variable or variables.
Provides a general representation of relationships between variables in a given phenomenon.
Which of the following best describes a conceptual framework?
Concept map
a visual representation of information that helps show the relationship between ideas.
Input-Process-Output Model
also referred to as a functional model that is usually used in action research where an intervention or solution is necessary to solve the identified problem.
Mediating Variable
an element that exists between the independent to the dependent variable.
Moderating Variable
an independent variable which influences the direction and the strength of the connection between independent and dependent variables.
Concept map
begin with the main topic and then branch out into sub-topics, reflecting the connection of all the elements in the study.
Theoretical Framework
commonly used for studies that anchor on time-tested theories that relate the findings of the investigation to the underpinning relevant theory of knowledge.
Process
consists of the instruments and analysis used to acquire the result
Conceptual Framework
refers to the actual ideas, beliefs, and tentative theories that specifically support the study. It is primarily a conception or model of what is out there that the researcher plans to study.
Independent Variable
the "presumed cause" of the research problem.
Dependent Variable
the "presumed effect" of the research problem.
Specific Question
which are detailed questions that the study will answer.
General Question
which indicates the main problem of the study
