G Health Belief Framework Conceptional Revise We
In Week 2 you will be learning about theory and conceptual and theoretical frameworks in qualitative research. All dissertations have to include a theory (e.g., attribution theory) or a conceptual model (e.g., health belief model). Theories can be used to inform the design of the study and/or be used to explain findings from the analysis of your data. We do not test theories in qual studies.
