Abstract des Autors
This chapter illustrates the importance of theory in quantitative enquiry to the selection of an appropriate research paradigm, formation of research questions and hypotheses, development of measures and testing of relationships in the practice of research. These elements are addressed in this chapter, prefaced by an overview of the concept and relevance of theory, and concluded with some closing remarks.
