and Studies
It is the process that leads a researcher
to past theory and studies. The review
involves systematic identification, location,
and analysis of documents containing info
related to the research problem. It is the
researcher’s immediate concern to look for
these sources to put the literature into
some organized form and use these for the
study.
and Studies
It helps in a situation in which a
researcher has not decided for his topic
yet. It will enable him to determine and
have a good idea of the topic he is
interested in through reading literature
and studies such as theses, dissertations,
books and even periodicals.
It includes foreign lit, local lit, foreign
studies, local studies.

Sources of literature and studies
• Books, encyclopedia, almanacs, and similar
references
• Articles published in professional journal
magazines, periodicals, newspapers.
• Manuscripts, monographs, speeches, letters
and diaries.
• Unpublished theses and dissertations
• Constitution and laws and statutes of the
land
and Studies
• Bulletins, circulars, and orders emanating
from government offices and depts.
• Records of the schools, public and private,
especially reports of their activities.
• Reports from seminars, educations, or
otherwise.
• Official reports of all kinds, social,
economic, scientific, technical and
political.
Types of Sources
1. General references – tells the where to find
other sources, such as articles, monographs,
books and other docs.
2. Primary sources – these are the result of
researches or investigations that are reported
by the researchers themselves, and are then
published. Most primary sources are journals.
3. Secondary sources – these are publications in
which the authors describe the works done by
others.
Characteristics of Related
Literature and Studies
1. Materials must be recent as
possible
2. It must be objective and
unbiased
3. Must be relevant to the study
4. Must not be too few or too
many.
Ways of Citing Related Literature
and Studies
1. By author or writer – in this method the ideas,
facts or principles although they have the same
meaning, are explained or discussed
separately and cited in the footnotes with their
respective authors or writers.
2. By topics – in this case, if diff authors or writers
have the same opinion about the topic, the
topic is discussed and cited under the names
of the authors. This is the summary of their
opinions. This is to avoid separate and long
discussions.
Ways of Citing Related Literature
and Studies
3. Chronological – according to the year they
were written, materials which are written
earlier should be cited first, before those which
are written later.
4. What to cite – only major findings, ideas,
generalizations, principles, or conclusions
relevant to the problem under investigation
should be discussed. Generally, such findings,
ideas, generalizations, principles or
conclusions are summarized, paraphrased or
synthesized.
Research Paradigm
Conceptual Framework - Input,
Processed, Output (IPO)
Theoretical Framework - based on
theory gathered
Conceptual Framework – show the
research paradigm or structure of the entire
study. This will guide the researcher what to
do or not to do and what are needed or not
needed in the study.
Research Paradigm
This is the researcher’s map that
guides him/her in undertaking the
study. It shows how he/she
understands and looks at the
problem by means of presenting
relationships of variables after a
review of related literature and
studies.
Research Paradigm
The discussion of the
conceptual framework is followed
by a diagram (also called a
paradigm) that allows the reader
as well as the researcher to have
an idea of the whole research
process at one glance.
Research Paradigm
The conceptual paradigm is

a diagrammatic representation
of a conceptual framework. It
depicts in a more vivid way
what the research wants to
cover.
Research Paradigm
Theoretical Framework – the
foundation of the research study. These
are highly related theories and principles
that were established and proven by
authorities which are very useful to the
present study. Almost all research
studies that were conducted in the past
were based on universally accepted
theories and principles.
Research Paradigm
It means relating to or having the
characteristics of the theory, therefore,
refers to the set of interrelated construct,
definitions, and prepositions that presents a
systematic view of phenomena by
specifying relations among variables. It
becomes the basis of the research problem.
It explains the phenomena upon which the
thesis investigation hopes to fill the vacuum
in the stream of knowledge.
Operational Definition of
Variables
It is a terms are defined according to their
use in the study. This clears up difficulty in
understanding the research report. Sometimes
the definition of terms given in the Webster
dictionary is not the definition of the same term
as used in the study. Arranged in alphabetically
using the first letter of the first word as basis.
This portion of the thesis will then look like a
little dictionary. Acronyms should always be
spelled out fully especially if it is not commonly
