Based on the result of your preliminary findings through secondary data analyses, literature review and qualitative research draw a diagram to identify and show the relationship between the independent, dependent, moderator and/or mediator variables. Students should use proper symbols/arrows when drawing the conceptual framework. Indicate the moderator variables and/or mediator variables if any, by properly locating their position in the diagram. (Please refer to any good academic journal for examples of how this is done). 1. How would you conceptualise variables or elements in the conceptual framework, systems architecture, conceptual model or model? 2. Provide an operational definition for each of the variables or elements. (Do not forget to cite the source of reference) The framework must also be presented in a diagram showing how the variables/elements are inter-related. Based on the theoretical framework, formulate the main hypotheses of the research (if required). Hypotheses must be properly worded (see published articles for examples)
