1. CONCEPTUAL
FRAMEWORK

2. CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
- represents the researcher’s synthesis of literature on
how to explain a phenomenon.
- it maps out the actions required in the course of the
study given his previous knowledge of other researchers’ point of
view and his observations on the subject of research.

3. - the conceptual framework is the researcher’s
understanding of how the particular variables in his study connect
with each other.
- it identifies the variables required in the research
investigation.
- it is the researcher’s “map” in pursuing the investigation.

4. STEP BY STEP GUIDE ON HOW TO MAKE THE CONCEPTUAL
FRAMEWORK
1. Choose your topic
2. Do a literature review
3. Isolate the important variables
4. Generate the conceptual framework

5. SAMPLE CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

6. Component Meaning
Box Variable
Arrow Causal influence (cause-effect
relationship)
Line Connection (correlation)

7. SAMPLE CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK USING AN INDEPENDENT VARIABLE AND A
DEPENDENT VARIABLE

8. EXPANDING THE CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
 Moderator variables
 Mediator variables
• Control variables

9. Next steps
Once your conceptual framework is complete, you’re ready to start undertaking
scientific research that will prove the relationships you have illustrated. You can
select from a number of qualitative and quantitative research methods, including:
 Literature reviews
 Interviews
 Surveys
