This document contains the answers to three questions about conducting research for a case study project.
For the first question, the answer explains that identifying a relevant theoretical framework is important because it connects the research to existing knowledge and helps define the scope. The theoretical framework should be identified early in the research process.
For the second question, the answer says Emma was right to restrict her project to low-cost airlines rather than all airlines, to narrow the scope of her research.
For the third question, the answer says Emma was not correct to decide not to do interviews, because interviews could have provided useful insights from management and helped explore the research topic and potential results.

Q. Why is it important that your research can be related to a relevant theory
base, and when during the project does the theoretical framework need to be identified? Ans: Relevant theory help the student to find data according to theory base that helps them to proceed forward. It should have an authentic framework that supports theory & project. Theory is the explanation of our findings. The identification of theoretical framework depends upon the overall research process. A theoretical outline contains concepts, together with their definition & existing theory that are used for your particular study. This must establish an understanding of theories and concepts that are related to topic of your research paper & that will relate it to wider field of knowledge. It supports the study in following cases: It connects the researchers to existing knowledge. Having a theory helps you to identify the limits of overviews. Q. Do you think that Emma is right to restrict her project to any low-cost airlines rather than the whole industry or comparison with another sector? Give reasons for your answers? Ans: Emma is right to restrict her project to any low-cost airlines rather than to research the whole industry & due to growth of airlines this looked to be a sensible approach. Due to narrow down the idea the topic area was now clear in her mind to explore change in disclosure over time by low cost airlines. Q. Do you think Emma was correct in her decision not to carry out interviews? Give reasons for your answer? Ans: No, she was not correct in deciding not to carry out interviews. She could take it because she had access to the sum of the management that would be useful in the topic. It can be used to help us to explore the research topic & provide us a possible result .Interviews help to collect the data as well as to gain knowledge from individuals must be addressed i.e cover-up & confidentiality.
