Revise your problem statement from Week 3 according to instructor feedback. Re-read the articles from last week’s assignment and identify the theories and frameworks used as the basis for the studies. If you cannot find references to theories, do more research related to your topic of interest. Develop a list of at least three theories or frameworks that support your problem statement. Write a paper in which you address the following:
- Explain the basis of each theory/framework.
- Explain the concepts and variables from each theory and how they are defined/operationalized in the studies.
- Assess how each theory may support your study. If you do not think the theory is useful, explain why.
Based on your analysis of theories and frameworks, formulate a quantitative purpose statement that directly addresses your stated problem. In addition, the purpose should:
- Reflect the core objectives of your study.
- Be written in proper quantitative research language.
- Reference variables from identified theories/frameworks covered. You may also include variables you think may help address the purpose.
- Reference potential participants in your study.
