What is a Conceptual Framework?
Conceptual frameworks are used in the process of conducting research to illustrate the theories that the research intends to present. It is a visual representation of relationships between dependent and independent variables. The conceptual framework is developed based on the findings of the literature review of the topic.
How to Make a Conceptual Framework?
- Select a topic for your research and develop the literature review based on the existing theories and literature relating to the topic.
- When writing the literature review, be mindful to select reliable sources to gather information, such as scholarly journals, recognised electronic sources and critically acclaimed books.
- Identify specific variables pertaining to the topic or the theory you intend to present. Examine the relationships between these variables and study their implications on each other.
- Determine how the theory you are posing can add new information to the topic and refine your arguments with survey findings and evidence from the literature review.
- The conceptual framework can be created in the form of a flowchart, mind map, concept map or process diagram to display your Hypothesis and the chain of variables. Use shape data to store in-depth information about each variable and their influence.
- When presenting the conceptual framework, include a section to display your research methodology.
- When conducting the research if you come across any evidence that may disprove your theory, return to the conceptual framework and revise it accordingly.
- Conceptual frameworks visualised with Creately can be shared easily by embedding it in a website, via viewable or editable links or by exporting in PDF, JPEG, PNG or SVG formats.
