Hi,

i'm writing a quantitative paper (management field), and i have some issues about present my hypotheses.

I know usually researchers present/develop their hypotheses as below format:

( literarure review )...... therefore we propse:

H1: xxxxxxx

( literarure review )...... therefore we propse:

H2: xxxxxxx

...........................

However, because my literature review is a bit complex, so to make the logic more smooth, i only can present my hypotheses at the end of the literature review, as following:

( literature review) ........ therefore we propose:

H1: xxxxxxx

H2: xxxxxxx

H3: xxxxxxx

I've seen many papers present their hypotheses as this way, is the second format normal and good?

thanks!
