Here is the link https://academicguides.waldenu.edu/library/conceptualframework • Researchers create theoretical and conceptual frameworks that include a philosophical and methodological model to help design their work. A formal theory provides context for the outcome of the events conducted in the research. The data collection and analysis are also based on the theoretical and conceptual framework. • As stated by Grant and Osanloo (2014), “Without a theoretical framework, the structure and vision for a study is unclear, much like a house that cannot be constructed without a blueprint. By contrast, a research plan that contains a theoretical framework allows the dissertation study to be strong and structured with an organized flow from one chapter to the next.” • Theoretical and conceptual frameworks provide evidence of academic standards and procedure. They also offer an explanation of why the study is pertinent and how the researcher expects to fill the gap in the literature. • Literature does not always clearly delineate between a theoretical or conceptual framework. With that being said, there are slight differences between the two. © 2018 Laureate Education Inc. 4 References The Johns Hopkins Hospital/Johns Hopkins University (n.d.).
