Purpose 1.To test theories. 2.To make research findings meaningful and generalizable. 3.To establish orderly connections between observations and facts. 4.To predict and control situations. 5.To stimulate research. The theoretical framework strengthens the study in the following ways :   1.An explicit statement of  theoretical assumptions permits the reader to evaluate them critically. 2.The theoretical framework connects the researcher to existing knowledge.
