CHAPTER lll.
3. Review of Related Literature
A review of related literature (RRL) is a detailed
review of existing literature related to the topic of a
thesis or dissertation. In an RRL, we talk about
knowledge and findings from existing literature
relevant to your topic.
4. Research Literature refers to texts, books, pieces of
writing; written works. Literature is a more general term
that includes not only published studies, but also other
things like abstract theoretical discussions, opinions,
policy statements by government or other agencies,
etc.
What is the difference between Literature and
Studies?
5. Research Studies refers to research, analysis
and/or experimentation regarding a subject, and
may refer to written work that regards such
studies. Studies are where actual experiments are
performed and/or data are collected and analyzed.
6. Related literature and Related studies help the
researcher to understand his/her topic better,
because it may clarify vague points about his
problem. It also guides the researcher in making
comparisons between his findings with the
findings of other similar studies.
7. Foreign Literature comprises of news,
information websites, and articles from
another nation that are very relevant to your
research or study.
Foreign literature and local literature
8. Local literature includes books written by authors
who live in the country where you are
researching or studying. Local writers may write
about issues related to their home country, but
they usually focus on topics such as politics,
history, society, and culture.
9. Synthesis is an important element of academic
writing, demonstrating comprehension, analysis,
evaluation and original creation.
Synthesis requires the writer to pull together two or
more summaries, looking for themes in each text.
Identify relevant parts, take notes, produce drafts,
re-read the source texts, revise your text, re-write.
Synthesis of the literature and studies reviewed
10. Literature & Studies Reviewed
Literature reviews synthesize large amounts of
information and present it in a coherent,
organized fashion. In a literature review you will
be combining material from several texts to create
a new text – your literature review.
11. The theoretical framework is the structure that can
hold or support a theory of a research study. The
theoretical framework introduces and describes
the theory that explains why the research problem
under study exists.
Theoretical
Framework
12. theoretical framework is a foundational review of
existing theories that serves as a roadmap for
developing the arguments you will use in your own
work. Theories are developed by researchers to
explain phenomena, draw connections, and make
predictions.
13. Conceptual Framework
A conceptual framework illustrates the
expected relationship between your variables.
It defines the relevant objectives for your
research process and maps out how they
come together to draw coherent conclusions.
14. Conceptual frameworks are often represented in
a visual format and illustrate cause-and-effect
relationships. You can start conceptualizing this
as you determine your relevant paper, thesis, or
dissertation topic.

2. Definition/Description of Variables
3. Relationship of Variables
16. THEY ARE TWO TYPE OF
VARIABLES
INDEPENDENT VARIABLES
are what we expect will influence
dependent variables
DEPENDENT VARIABLE
is what happens as a result of the
independent variable.
18. Research Paradigm
It is the process of constructing a research plan that
can assist you in quickly understanding how the
theories and practices of your research project work.
A method, model, or pattern for conducting research.
It is a set of ideas, beliefs, or understandings within
which theories and practices can function.
