CHAPTER I
THE PROBLEM AND ITS SCOPE

This chapter of the paper presents the problem and its setting. It includes
the background of the study, the statement of the problem, significance of the
study, and scope and delimitation of the study.

Background of the Study


This is the description that leads the reader to understanding the
research questions and appreciate why they are asked (Creswell, 2013).

Statement of the Problem


This section contains the purpose statement and the research question(s).

Significance of the Study


Determines the audience who will benefit from a study of the problem
and explains how exactly the results will be significant to them.

Scope and Delimitation


This presents the coverage of the research in terms of location, time,
respondents, etc., and the potential weaknesses or problems with the study
identified by the researcher.

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

This chapter of the paper presents the review of related literature, the
conceptual framework, the research hypotheses, and the definition of terms.

Related Literature
This is a written summary of journal articles, books, and other documents
that describes the past and current state of information on the topic of your
research study.

Conceptual Framework

2
This is a diagram that connects variables of the study with lines
(correlations) or arrows (cause-effect relationships).

Research Hypothesis(es)
A hypothesis is a prediction of the possible outcomes of a study (Fraenkel
& Wallen, 2009). Hypotheses are statements in quantitative research in which
the investigator makes a prediction or a conjecture about the outcome of a
relationship among attributes or characteristics (Creswell, 2012)

Definition of Terms
Variables and sub-variables or values in conceptual framework are
defined, except very common variables like grade level, gender, school type
where the values are indicated in the framework itself.

CHAPTER III
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

This chapter includes the research design, the sample, the instruments,
the intervention (if research is experimental), the data collection procedure, and
the plan for data analysis.

Research Design
Research designs are the specific procedures involved in the research
process: sampling, data collection, and data analysis.

Research Sampling
The first step leading to the process of collecting quantitative data is to
identify the people and places you plan to study. This involves determining
which group of people will you study, who, specifically, these people are, and
how many of them you will need to involve.

Research Instrument(s)
This refers to the questionnaire or data gathering tool to be constructed,
validated and administered (Creswell, 2012).

Intervention
Clearly and completely describe how the intervention will be
implemented, such that the reader can replicate the intervention. Describe what
happens in comparison group.

Data Collection Procedure


Quickly describe whose permission will be sought and arrangements to
make to administer instruments. Describe when instruments will be
administered and who will administer them. Add details on arrangements and
administration of instruments, if needed.

Plan for Data Analysis


This section indicates how the data will be analyzed and reported; it
should specify the qualitative and/or quantitative methods that will be used in
analyzing the data gathered for the research.

CHAPTER IV

3
PRESENTATION AND ANALYSIS OF DATA

In reporting the results, the researcher stays close to the statistical


findings without drawing broader implications or meaning from them. Further,
this section includes summaries of the data rather than the raw data (e.g., the
actual scores for individuals). A results section includes tables, figures, and
detailed explanations about the statistical results.

(Based on First Question in the SOP)


Includes results and discussion relevant to the first question of the
research or the first variable of the study.

(Based on Second Question in the SOP)


Includes results and discussion relevant to the second question of the
research or the second variable of the study.

CHAPTER V
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

This chapter presents the conclusions and recommendations of the study.

Conclusions
The portion that gives meaning to your research and your results. The
objective of the Conclusion section is to examine the results, determine whether
they solve the research question, compare them within themselves and to other
results (from literature), explain and interpret them, and then draw conclusions
or derive generalizations, and make recommendations for applying the results
or for further research.

Recommendations
Write recommendations for beneficiaries of results of study cited in
Significance of Study.
