SAMPLE 2 - SLIDE PRESENTATION FOR THE PROBLEM
STATEMENT
(YOUR EXPLANATION MUST REFER TO YOUR RESEARCH
MODEL)
Step 1 – Briefly Explain The Body Of Knowledge About Your Iv (Independent Variable) As Exhibited In Your
Research Model.
• Global definition of iv
• Purpose & significance of iv
• Approaches/school of thoughts to iv (traditional & contemporary views)
Step 2 – Briefly Explain The Internal Properties Of Iv
• Several important components/dimensions/elements/characteristics/
• Features of iv
Step 3 – Briefy State Your Reseach Problem (Refer To Your Article) - For A Direct Effect Model
a) Develop a research problem that explain a direct correlation between iv and dv
• State several important theories supporting your problem statement
• State several important empirical studies supporting your problem statement
b) Provide justifications/reasons to support the selection of iv as A determinant in your article)
• Disclose the weaknesses of previous theories models
• Disclose the weaknesses of previous methodology (methods & procedures)
• Disclose the weaknesses of previous research findings from practitioners’ perspectives
Step 4 - Articles Used A Mediating Model/Moderating Model, You Need To Provide The Following Information:
a) Develop a research problem that explain a mediator/moderator between iv and dv
• State several important theories supporting your problem statement
• State several important empirical studies supporting your problem statement
b) Provide justifications/reasons to support the selection of mediator/moderator in your article)
• Disclose the weaknesses of previous theories models
• Disclose the weaknesses of previous methodology (methods & procedures)
• Disclose the weaknesses of previous research findings from practitioners’ perspectives
Step 3 – Briefy State Your Reseach Problem (Refer To Your Article)
Option 2 – if your articles used a mediating effects model or moderating effects model, you need to provide the following information:
a) Develop an initial research problem that explain a direct correlation between iv and dv
• State several important theories supporting your problem statement
• State several important empirical studies supporting your problem statement
b) Develop a recent/latest research problem that explain a correlation between iv and dv through mediator(mediating effects model) or
effect of iv on dv is not consistent if A moderator exists (moderating effects model).
• State several important theories supporting your problem statement
• State several important empirical studies supporting your problem statement
c) Provide justifications/reasons to support the effect of of mediator or moderator In your article)
• Disclose the weaknesses of previous theories.Models
• Disclose the weaknesses of previous methodology (methods & procedures)
• Disclose the weaknesses of previous research findings from practitioners’ perspectives
