What is Theoretical Framework

1.

A progression of learning from a cognitive, to associative, to an autonomous phase using knowledge- and skills-based on exposure and practice to learning situations over time.

2.

This is the structure that supports the theory of a research study or line of research endeavor. The framework describes the theory that connects to the line of research and explains why a given research problem is of interest for study. It organizes a use of theory to allow research to uncover the meaning, nature, and challenges of a phenomenon. This allows a line of research to provide knowledge and understanding to act in more informed and effective ways.

3.

The theoretical framework introduces and describes the theory that explains why the research problem under study exists. Learn more in: Challenges Implementing Telemedicine at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP)

4.

A model that designs the framework for the development of the instrument and a factually based structure. Learn more in: Multiple Factors of Workforce Development that Affect the Efficacy of Training Transfer to the On-the-Job Performance of Public Health Care Workers

5.

This is the structure of concepts which exists in the literature, a ready-made map for the study; it provides the structure for examining a problem; serves as a guide to examine relationships between variables (Liehr & Smith, 2001). Learn more in: An Evidence-Based Health Information System Theory

This term is also used differently by different researchers; therefore, each researcher has to define how they use it in their work. I use theoretical framework as the theoretical model or theory that describes some aspect of the research problem. So this element deals with some aspect of the content (not design) of the investigation. It could influence the design, if it requires that particular kinds of questions need to be asked in a specific quadrant, but its major role in the analysis of the findings. A theoretical framework is associated with one particular quadrant ontology, so in IMP it is possible to employ four different theoretical frameworks in the analysis.
