Talk:Conceptual framework

message: I'm removing the strange, ungrammatical, nonsensical paragraph under the heading of "Accounting" in the article. There's more content about conceptual frameworks in the talk page than in the article itself anyway. The way the article stands, it's bad editing. Dnavarro (talk)
"conceptual framework" could also be associated with accounting...... the IASB?  International Accouting Standards Board issues an accounting conceptual framekwork......! 130.220.39.16 10:35, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

message: So how does one "build" a conceptual framework?
(The above is attributed to User:Quinobi.)
Hi Quinobi I have put a link to an entry for Conceptual object this might help. Conceptual framework's built from objects are crucial in many domains, very important in Artificial intelligence.

thread_title: Quinobi's question

message: To my understanding, relational models, in the computing sense, are one narrow kind of conceptual framework, as are electrical engineering systems, or other systems modelled on them.  Isn't a "conceptual framework" really just a type of theory or in some cases on ontology - a collection of related concepts?  It would help this article be less vague and more correct if some authoritative sources were cited for the various claims about what a "conceptual framework" is.  I'm also not sure this concept is distinct enough from these other ideas to be put in its own article, so I've added a proposed merger tag. -- Beland 21:25, 31 July 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Accuracy and grounding

message: This page links to the function disambiguation page, but it isn't clear to me which, if any, of the function pages it refers to.  I believe that when it originally linked to function, function was already a disambiguation page.  I'm going to delink it for now. Volfy 07:25, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

message: * Strongly oppose.  Conceptual framework and Theory are very distinct concepts.  The notion of a conceptual framework is standard in numerous literatures and has been so for quite a long time now.  Moreover, conceptual framework is the more accurate term for many informal treatments and pre-theoretical views of particular subject matters that it is an abuse of language to call "theories".

thread_title:  Proposed merge with Theory 

message: This article says that conceptual and/or theoretical framewrok is for developing a theory.
The point is, a theory itself is for developing a theory. It starts as a hypothesis, and develops into a theory after supporting facts are reported etc.
A theory tries to explain a phenomena.
So, what is a Conceptual and/or theoretical framework?
* Something which tries to try explaining the phenomena?
* Something which is for developing a theory which itself is in a development already?
* A methodoly?
* A method?
* A strategy?
* A technique?
* A medium?

replies: text: It's not easy to define it, because it can be applied to different contexts. Leo1pard (talk) 07:51, 1 December 2018 (UTC)

text: From what I've heard, it is something like a plan of a process that can make use of specified research inputs in order to obtain specified research outputs. Something similar or closely related to these five things: {methodology, method, strategy, technique, medium}. Distinctions are not clear, though. Myrnamyers (talk) 13:49, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
