1. Why can the reader misunderstanding with the information conveyed by the

[Provide a dictionary type definition of the terms and concepts to enable readers
to follow the dissertation. Definition, unless is yours, must come with a reference.
Don’t rely on Wikipedia too much for this. Find more serious sources from your
literature]
[Review of related and recent articles on the issues of interest. You should
organise the review of the studies according to the concepts/variables in the
conceptual framework. The studies reviewed should the basis for the definition
and also the relationship of the variables with others. The review can also
provide pointers on the new aspects that could be researched].
Based on the review of literature and also observation and insight into the
problem you should develop a conceptual framework of the proposed study.
What are my IVs? What is my DV? Are there mediating or moderating variables?
What is the relationship between these variables? Are there hypotheses? Are
there directional or non-directional hypotheses? How are the variables related?
What is the evidence or basis of making these claims of relationship?
Remember models describe the relationship but theories explain the relationship.
What is overall theory can be used to justify the relationship? Input-output model,
Skinner’s Behavioral Theory, Bandura’s Social Learning Theory, Fishbein &
Azjen’s Belief, Attitude, Intention and Behavior Theory, Becker’s Human Capital
Theory, Lawler’s Expectancy Theory, Blau’s Social Exchange Theory,
Contingency Theory etc.

you choose this one? Do you have evidence of it reliability, validity,
suitability, appropriateness, simplicity, conceptual relevance etc.
3.6.2 Repeat for every variable in the conceptual framework.
