Concepts And variables
- 1. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CONCEPTS AND VARIABLES HCPradyumnaRao
- 2. ELEMENTS OF THEORY • OBSERVATION • FACT • LAWS • CONCEPTS • VARIABLE
- 3. CONCEPTS • AN ABSTRACTION BASED ON CHARACTERISTICS OF PERCEIVED REALITY. • A LABEL WE PUT ON A PHENOMENON THAT ENABLES US TO LINK SEPARATE OBSERVATIONS AND TO MAKE GENERALIZATIONS. • CONCEPTS RANGE FROM ABSTACT TO CONCRETE. • IT ALSO HELPS IN UNDERSTANDING THE CATEGORY AND DIVERSITY OF PARTICULAR RELATED PRAGMATIC PHENOMENON.
- 4. • CONCEPTS RANGE FROM ABSTRACT TO CONCRETE. • MORE ABSTRACT, LESS IT IS DIRECTLY OBSERVABLE AND MORE IT NEEDS APPROPRIATE DEFINITION. • MORE CONCRETE, EASIER TO COMMUNICATE THE EXACT CONTENT OF THE CONCEPT. • THE SUCCESS OF THE RESEARCH DEPENDS ON HOW CLEARLY WE CONCEPTUALIZE AND HOW WELL OTHERS UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPTS WE USE.
- 5. VARIABLES THE FACTOR OR A CONTENT OF AN ISSUE WHICH SHOULD BE ABLE TO MEASURE. IT IS COMPLETELY BASED ON VALUES AND IT VARIES FROM INCIDENTS TO INCIDENTS AND ISSUES TO ISSUES.
- 6. INDEPENDENT VARIABLE • an independent variable is a variable that affects the dependent variable and in itself it is free of any effects from the dependent variable DEPENDENT VARIABLE • The dependent variable is the other main variable that is the effect of the independent variable EXTRANEOUS VARIABLE • Extraneous variables are all those variables that can impact the dependent variable other than the independent variable.
- 7. INTERVENING VARIABLE • this variable is not always present but in the certain situation its intervention plays an important role between the cause and effect relationship.
