This document discusses theoretical frameworks and conceptual frameworks. It defines a theory as a set of interrelated concepts, definitions, and propositions that present a systematic view of a phenomenon. A theoretical framework represents concepts from an existing theory that are relevant to a research study. A conceptual framework deals with abstract concepts assembled around a common theme to represent ways of thinking about a problem. It provides a logical structure for a study and reflects the researcher's assumptions. Key components of a conceptual framework include concepts, relational statements between concepts, and inputs like literature reviews and the researcher's knowledge and experience.
Data collection is a one of the major important topic in research study, It should be clear and understandable to all students, especially in graduate studies

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.
2. MEANING OF THEORY
• “A theory is a set of interrelated construct
(concepts), definitions and propositions (a
statement that expresses a opinion) that present
a systemic view of phenomenon by specifying
relations among variables with the purpose of
explaining and predicting the phenomenon.”
-Kelinger 1973
3. THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
The theoretical framework is a collection of
interrelated concepts that represent a piece of
theory to be examined as the basis from research
studies. It presents a broad, general explanation
of the relationship between the concepts of the
research study based on an existing study.
4. CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
• Conceptual framework represent ways of
thinking about a problem.
• It deals with abstractions ( concepts) that
are assembled from a common theme.
5. DEFINATION
• A written or visual presentation that “explains
either graphically or by narration, the main
things to be studied – the key factors,
concepts or variables - and the presumed
relationship among them”. (Miles and
Huberman, 1994)
6. • A Conceptual framework provides a logical,
unified and orderly way of seeing related
events or processes that relevant to a study/
research and less formal than theories.
• It can be :
• Basic or elaborative,
• Theory driven or commonsensical ,
• Descriptive or casual (Miles, and
Huberman )
7. • It broadly presents understanding of the
phenomenon of interest and reflects the
assumptions (accepted as true without
proof) andphilosophic view of the designer.
• It is researcher’s own position on the problem
theway theresearchershapesit together.
8. What it does?
• Conceptual frameworks serve like a flexible
springboardfortheorydevelopment.
• CFshowstherelationshipof thestated hypotheseswith
central factorsorkey concepts.
• PartofCFoffersasynopsisof thestudy's mainpoints.
9. • Each framework highlights or emphasizes different
aspectsof aproblemorresearch question.
• Any one conceptual framework presents only a partial
view ofreality.
• Focuses attention on and amplify certain elements of a
problemlikeusingamagnifying glass
10. Purposes
• Provides an organizing structure for the
researchdesign and methods.
• Useful to prepare research proposal using
experimentalor descriptivemethods.
• Guides the development and testing of
interventions andhypotheses.
11. Ingredients
• A conceptual framework is composed of concepts and
the relational linkages between them ( called
propositionalstatements)
• Concepts abstractly describes and names an object or
phenomenon, thus providing it with separate identity or
meaning.
• It is actually the intellectual representation of some aspect of
reality,derived fromobservationsmadefrom phenomenon.
14. Conceptsynthesis
Process of describing and naming a previously
unrecognizedconcept
Eg. Synthesis to identifyanddefinetheconceptstress.
Concept derivation
Meanings are derived from other disciplines may be
modified and carefully evaluated to fit in the nursing
knowledge
15. Conceptualanalysis
• A strategy through a set of characteristics essential
to the suggestive meaning of a concept is
identified.
• A strategy that involves examining the attributes
characteristicsofaconcept.
-Walker&Avant1983
16. Its a philosophical inquiry; Researcher
explores various ways the termis used and try
to identify set of characteristics that can be
used to describe the concept.
How?
By × search of literature
× personal experience and thought
× Reasoning
- Walker & Avant 1985
17. Types of concepts
Accordingto Level of abstraction:
1. Abstract concepts or theoretical concepts
2. Empirical or descriptive concepts
18. According to level of categorization:
1. Global ordomain concepts
2. Middle rangeconcepts
3. Empiricalconcepts
19. • Concepts are important because they
provide a road map
• Give the big picture ideas (the concepts)
up front, and then fit in the smaller facts
and details
• Provide the context for the researcher
20. • Next steps isto state Relations
with concepts.
• ?Relationalstatement-declaresthata relationship
of some kind exists between two or more
concepts.(Walker&Avant 1980)
