Objective:
 Illustrate
and explain
conceptual framework
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
What is a Framework?
It is a basic structure or frame of
reference which is designed to support
or enclose something?
 Theoretical framework – formulated
from an existing theory & serves as the
foundation of the study.
 Conceptual framework
 Conceptual Framework
 the explanation the scope and
range of a concept
 can be done without theory or
with a combination of two or
more theories.
 guides the researcher by giving
clear directions to the research.
 Paradigm of the Study
 Paradigm – diagrammatic
presentation of the study.
 a pattern, model, or set of forms
which contains particular
elements (Merriam-Webster, 2006).
 a visual representation of the
entire thesis.
 the heart of the research paper
 Elements of the Theoretical

4. Paradigm of the study –
diagrammatic presentation of
the study used to visually
summarize the whole study.

 IPO (input-process-output)
model – used when the
research discusses a factor or a
major variable that causes a
problem, phenomenon, or
transformation in the subject.
 Common Paradigms or Models
1. IPO (input-process-output) -
used when the research attempts to
isolate the factor or major variable
that causes the problem.
 Input – the variables that causes the problem,
phenomenon, or transformation)
 Process – the method by which the variables
are collected and synthesized
 Output – the problem, phenomenon, or
transformation; the outcome of the variables)

2. IV-DV Model (independent
variable-dependent variable
model) - used in experiment-
based studies. The questions are
higher order (situation-relating).
