Conceptual framework. Well I think it depends a bit on what science you are coming from (I am a social scientist with some biology background) Conceptual framework is as I see it an explanation of how you see the concepts of issues that you are going to research are interlinked with each other. In natural science it would in several ways be quite close to your hypothesis but may be a bit broader taking into consideration and explaining what the "parameters" of the hypothesis are and how they are interlinked. In social qualitative science it is more an explanation of how you see the concepts you examined are interlinked. A good way to start an analytical framework is to do a brainstorming and put the concepts you want to examine up on a paper and then start to develop their interlinkages (that can be hypothesis).

Dear Dr Johanna Olsson

I am greatly honoured and privileged to be given the opportunity.I am a Ph.D student on health management and my thesis is "developing a conceptual framework on social determinants o f health". this methodology is qualitative method by in-depht interview.

I seen your research gate home page and review on your articles. I would also like to thank Your Excellency . Can I send my new first revision of papar to you?

Your Excellency, with your guidance, I can determine the better conceptual framework.

Yours respectfully.

Of course please send your paper or draft of analytical framework. Looking forward to reading it.

Dear Dr Johanna Olsson

tanks a lots. I sent may draft as soon as possible .

yours respectfully.

Developing conceptual framework depends on the philosophical paradigms you subscribe to. If you are Quantitative researcher, the conceptual framework you are interested in developing must flow from the literature, and will also depend on the research questions you are investigating. In Qualitative research, conceptual framework are developed in the process of analysis. Infact, you dont know the kinds of themes and concepts to eveolve until you begin to analyse your data.

I would like to read your thesis, Rouhollah. It could be a great starting point for some research I'm pursuing.
