Research Theory


  • A demonstration of how the study:      
    • Will advance the scientific knowledge base.
    • Is grounded in your field.
    • Addresses something that is not known, something that is new or  different from prior research, something that extends prior research,  or something that fills a gap in the existing literature.
  • An analysis of any theoretical implications that the proposed study may have for understanding phenomena.
  • A description of the practical implications that may result from the research.

Theory is often used to support a qualitative investigation into a  human phenomenon. The Program of Research for your School lists theories  commonly associated with your specialization. Consider your research  topic. What theory from your specialization supports an investigation  and/or your research topic?

The assignment should be formatted as follows:

  • Section 1: Describe the key elements of a theory from your specialization (one paragraph).
  • Section 2: Explain how the theory supports the proposed investigation and/or understanding of the topic (1–2 paragraphs).
  • Section 3: Describe how the findings from the proposed study will  impact theory and your field. Explain how your study will advance  scientific knowledge (1–2 paragraphs).
  • Section 4: APA formatted reference page. (The content of your  assignment should be supported with appropriate academic sources and  include both citations and references in APA format.)
