The video tutorial explains the concept of a theoretical framework, its importance in research, and how to create one. It outlines steps to identify key concepts, evaluate relevant theories, and integrate them into research. Examples like customer loyalty and Maslow's hierarchy of needs are discussed. The tutorial also provides guidance on structuring a theoretical framework and emphasizes its role in supporting research analysis and interpretation.

What is the primary purpose of a theoretical framework in research?

• To describe the research methodology

• To list all the references used in the study

• To justify and contextualize the study

• To provide a summary of the research findings

Which of the following is NOT a step in creating a theoretical framework?

• Identifying key concepts

• Evaluating relevant theories

• Conducting experiments

• Showing how research fits into existing research

What is the importance of defining key concepts in a theoretical framework?

• To confuse the reader

• To increase the length of the paper

• To make the research more complex

• To ensure clarity and understanding

In the example of customer satisfaction, what is the main objective?

• To increase the number of new customers

• To reduce product prices

• To increase the quantity of returned customers

• To improve customer service

How does Maslow's hierarchy of needs relate to employee motivation?

• It lists the job roles in an organization

• It describes the financial incentives for employees

• It provides a framework for understanding employee satisfaction

• It outlines the steps for employee training

What is the purpose of conducting a literature review in the context of a theoretical framework?

• To create a bibliography

• To find gaps in the research

• To list all the books read by the researcher

• To determine how other researchers have defined key concepts

What should you do if a well-established theory is not suitable for your research?

• Replace it with a less known theory

• Use it anyway

• Briefly mention it and explain why it is not suitable

• Ignore it completely

What is a potential aim when using existing theories in your research?

• To only use theories from the same field

• To avoid using any theories

• To prove all theories wrong

• To test a theory in a new context

Which of the following is a way to structure a theoretical framework?

• By listing all theories alphabetically

• By using random order

• By organizing by date

• By focusing on unrelated concepts

Why is it important to have a clear logical structure in a theoretical framework?

• To make it more difficult to read

• To make it easier to skip sections

• To ensure the reader understands the rationale

• To increase the word count
