conceptual framework

A conceptual framework is an analytical tool with several variations and contexts. It is used to make conceptual distinctions and organize ideas. Strong conceptual frameworks capture something real and do this in a way that is easy to remember and apply. Isaiah Berlin used the metaphor of a “Fox” and a “Hedgehog” to make conceptual distinctions in how important philosophers and authors view the world.〔Isaiah Berlin, 1953. ''The Hedgehog and the Fox: An Essay on Tolstoy’s View of History'', London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson; 1986 New York: Simon and Schuster, introduction by M. Walzer.〕 Berlin describes hedgehogs as those who use a single idea or organizing principle to view the world (examples given include Dante, Pascal, Dostoevsky, Plato, Ibsen and Hegel). Foxes, on the other hand, incorporate a type of pluralism and view the world through multiple, sometimes conflicting, lenses (examples include Goethe, Joyce, Shakespeare, Aristotle, Herodotus, Molière, Anderson, Balzac).
Economists use the conceptual framework of “supply” and “demand” to distinguish between the behavior and incentive systems of firms and consumers.〔Colander, David. 2013. ''Microeconomics,'' 9th edition, New York: McGraw Hill and Frank, Robert and Ben Bernanke. 2013. ''Principles of Microeconomics,'' 5th edition. New York: McGraw Hill.〕 Like many conceptual frameworks, supply and demand can be presented through visual or graphical representations (see Demand curve).

The use of the term ''conceptual framework'' crosses both analytical and Conceptual (large and small theories) 〔Ravitch, and Riggan. 2012 '' Reason and Rigor: How Conceptual Frameworks guide Research,'' Thousand Oaks CA: Sage p. xiii〕〔Maxwell, J. 2009. "Designing a qualitative study" in '' The State Handbook of Applied Social Science Research '' edited by L. Bickmam and D. Rog. Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage p. 222.〕 and contexts (social science,〔Rodman, Hyman. 1980. “Are Conceptual Frameworks Necessary for Theory Building? The Case of Family Sociology". '' The Sociological Quarterly '' Vol. 21, No. 3 pp. 429-441.〕〔Moorstein, Mark. Frameworks, Conflict in Balance.〕 marketing,〔Jaworski, B, Stathakopoulos, V. and Krishnan H. S. 1993. “Control Combinations in Marketing: Conceptual Framework and Empirical Evidence” ‘‘ Journal of Marketing’’ Vol. 57, No. 1, pp. 57-69.〕 applied science,〔Hobbs, R. and Norton, D. 2006. “Towards a Conceptual Framework for Restoration Ecology.” ‘‘ Restoration Ecology.’’ Vol. 4, No. 2, pp. 93-110.〕 art 〔Umberto Eco, 1978. ‘‘A Theory of Semiotics’’, Indiana University Press, p 310 endnote #47 See also The Conceptual Framework〕 etc.). Its explicit definition and application can therefore vary.
Conceptual frameworks are particularly useful as organizing devices in empirical research. One set of scholars has applied the notion of conceptual framework to deductive, empirical research at the micro- or individual study level.〔Patricia M. Shields and Hassan Tajalli (2006), "Intermediate Theory: The Missing Link in Successful Student Scholarship, '' Journal of Public Affairs Education '' 12(3): 313-334. https://digital.library.txstate.edu/handle/10877/3967〕〔Baum, K. 2003. “Assessing Group Conflict: Understanding the Line-Staff Relationship in Fire Service” in '' Handbook of Conflict Management '' edited by W. Pammer and J. Killian. New York: Marcel Decker. pp. 129 – 135.〕〔Shields, Patricia and Rangarjan, N. 2013. A Playbook for Research Methods: Integrating Conceptual Frameworks and Project Management. (). Stillwater, OK: New Forums Press.〕〔Shields, Patricia 1998. "Pragmatism as a Philosophy of Science: A Tool for Public Administration," Research in Public Administration. Volume 4: 195-225. https://digital.library.txstate.edu/handle/10877/3954〕 They employ American football plays as a useful metaphor to clarify the meaning of ''conceptual framework'' (used in the context of a deductive empirical study).
Likewise, conceptual frameworks are abstract representations, connected to the research project's goal that direct the collection and analysis of data (on the plane of observation – the ground). Critically, a football play is a “plan of action” tied to a particular, timely, purpose, usually summarized as long or short yardage.〔Shields, Patricia. 2014. (Tools for Excellent Papers ): 2014 ASPA Student Summit. Presentation at the American Society for Public Administration annual conference, Washington DC March 15, This powerpoint depicts the connection between football and conceptual frameworks in the context of a large graduate student paper. The national presentation was delivered before Public Administration graduate students in Washington DC.〕 Shields and Rangarajan argue that it is this tie to “purpose” that make American football plays such a good metaphor. They define a conceptual framework as “the way ideas are organized to achieve a research project’s purpose.” 〔Shields, Patricia and Rangarjan, N. 2013. A Playbook for Research Methods: Integrating Conceptual Frameworks and Project Management. (). Stillwater, OK: New Forums Press. p. 24.〕 Like football plays conceptual frameworks are connected to a research purpose. Explanation 〔Babbie, Earl. 2007. '' The Practice of Social Research '' (11th edition). Belmont, CA: Thompson, Wadsworth pp. 89. Babbie also identifies exploration and description as purposes of empirical research〕 is the most common type of research purpose employed in empirical research. The formal hypothesis is the framework associated with explanation.〔Brains, C., Willnat, L., Manheim, J. and Rich, R. 2011. ''Empirical Political Analysis: Quantitative and Qualitative Research Methods'' New York, NY: Longman, pp. 75-77. Brains et al 2011 also identify exploration, explanation and description as research purposes. Explanation is connected to hypotheses testing (as a framework). The other research purposes are not connected to a framework.〕
Explanatory research usually focuses on “why” or “what caused” a phenomena to occur. Formal hypotheses posit possible explanations (answers to the why question) that are tested by collecting data and assessing the evidence (usually quantitative using statistical tests). For example Kai Huang 〔Huang, Kai. 2009. “Population and Building Factors that impact residential fire rates in large U.S. Cities.” ‘’Applied Research Projects’’, Texas State University.〕 wanted to determine what factors contributed to residential fires in U.S. cities. Three factors were posited to influence residential fires. These factors (environment, population and building characteristics) became the hypotheses or conceptual framework he used to achieve his purpose – explain factors that influenced home fires in U.S. cities.〔(Huang, Kai. 2009. "Population and Building Factors that impact residential fire rates in large U.S. Cities ).” ''Applied Research Projects'', Texas State University. p. 42. The formal hypotheses took the form of relational statements. H1: environmental factors influence residential fire rates; H2: populations characteristics influence residential fire rates; H3: Building factors influence residential fire rates. These hypotheses could be represented visually as
H1: A → RFR; H2: B → RFR; H3: C → RFR where A = environmental factors; B= population characteristics; C = Building Factors and RFR = Residential Fire Rates〕
