Framework
A framework is a model of how one theorizes or
makes logical sense of the relationships among
several factors that have been identified as
important to the problem. (Sekaran, 2001)

Frameworks
  • Limit scope of inquiry
  • Convey research importance to audiences

7
Qualitative
  • Learn from the participants
  • Framework locations
  • Orientation chapter 1
  • Theory chapter 2
  • Compare chapter 5

8
Conceptual Framework Components
  • Dependent variable/primary characteristic
  • Variables of influence or characteristics of
    interest
  • Extraneous variables or characteristics

9
Relationship Among Five Types of Variables
Independent Variables
Dependent Variables
Variables of Influence
Moderator Variables
Intervening Variables

10
Conceptual Framework Components
  • Relationships (anticipated and predicted from the
    review of literature) among and between variables
    and/or characteristics

11
Quantitative Framework Essentials
  • Visually tells your story (research) the big
    picture
  • Identifies literature review categories
  • Directs your objectives

12
Framework Essentials
  • Establishes your anticipated analyses
    (operational framework)
  • Manages your research design
  • Directs your instrument development

13
Quantitative Framework Locations
  • Theoretical/Conceptual - end of Chapter 2
  • A synthesis section explains the relationships
    and the categories
  • A transition section leads to. . .
  • Operational Framework
  • Beginning of Chapter 3
  • Tied to procedures/methodologies

Research Questions
  1. What is the demographic profile of the
    participants?
  2. What are the group formation factors in the
    development of IPM farmers associations?
  3. To what extent does knowledge acquisition impact
    group formation?
  4. What demographic characteristics are related to
    group formation?

FROM NON-PARTICIPATION TO ENGAGEMENT
When people do not participate in programs, their
perspectives are lost and do not inform the
program - nor do they benefit from programs.
Problem
People do not participate because
The program They are not does not meet included
in their needs the planning
They respond to internal or external forces
Their values clash with that of program planners
Their level of innovativeness is low
Explanations
Based on
Needs are Participation identifiable
and means authentic if met, inclusion in
all people show up planning levels
People possess a level of adoptive readiness
Personal and social forces exist and
exert influence
Congruent values lead to participation
Assumptions
Argued by
Chain-of-Response Theory Cross
Needs Assessment Functionalists Empowerment
Borich Arnstein Scissons Freire
Resistance Theory Quigley Boshier
Adoption and Diffusion Theory Rogers
Theories Theorists
Remedied through
Epistemology Methodology 1. Needs
contextualized to include values and interests
Functional perspectives better define 2. Values
and interests are made explicit peoples
orientation to the program
Solutions
Resulting in
Points of divergence and convergence in peoples
functional perspectives are identified, resulting
in the identification of Points of leverage to
increase peoples participation in programs
Result
