Remember to include an overview of what your manuscript aims to do (e.g. research a problem identify a new management concept etc.). Background This is an informative paragraph that helps the reader understand why you chose this topic. Review the background of the topic and elaborate here. Use language such as Thefollowing section will discuss the background of the topic. General Problem Statement This paragraph piggybacks on the previous paragraph. Now that you have discussed the background tell the reader what the general problem is and why you want to research it. Your general problem is a broad overview of the general problem. Oftentimes the general problem is viewed at the national level with supporting evidence from governmental websites that provide quantitative statistics. The paragraph must begin with The general problem is Specific Problem Statement This paragraph piggybacks on the previous paragraph. Now that you have discussed the general problem tell the reader what the specific problem is and why you want to research it. Your specific problem statement usually encompasses a specific population demography or geographic location. Oftentimes the specific problem is viewed at the local level with supporting evidence that provides quantitative statistics. The paragraph must begin with The specific problem is Purpose Statement This paragraph simply tells the reader the purpose of your research. (Example: The purpose of this research is to determine whether a relationship exists between nursing assistant staffing levels and quality of care in skilled nursing facilities). The paragraph must begin with The purpose of this research is Research Questions This paragraph provides an overview of the specific research questions you plan to investigate. You are only required to have one research question; however you may use more if needed. This section is where you unfold your research to the reader. What do you want to uncover This is where you ask the question(s). Use language such as: The research addressed the following research questions. RQ1: Ask your research question here. RQ2: Ask your research question here. Example: RQ1: How does geographic location relate to the level of quality in nursing homes RQ2: How does socioeconomic status relate to the level of quality in nursing homes Hypotheses Briefly discuss how you were able to validate or refute the null hypotheses. Use language such as The following null and alternative hypotheses served as the foundation for the study: H10: There is no correlation between x and y. H1A: There is a correlation between x and y. H20: There is no correlation between A and B. H2A: There is a correlation between A and B. Example: H10: There is no correlation between geographic location and the level of quality in nursing homes. H1A: There is a correlation between geographic location and the level of quality in nursing homes. H20: There is no correlation between socioeconomic status and the level of quality in nursing homes. H2A: There is a correlation between socioeconomic status and the level of quality in nursing homes. Definition of Terms If you have words in your capstone that may be confusing unknown to the general public or words that require further explanation please use this area. The following definitions of terms apply to the current research. Definition example. This is an example of how you would define definition example. Please follow this exact same format for each word that you need to define in your capstone. Second example. This is the second example. See how you italicize the word when you define it Please follow this exact same format for each word that you need to define in your capstone.Literature Review This section is the literature review. You will need two to three concepts to elaborate on relative to your research. This paragraph is a brief overview of what a literature review is and what concepts you plan to discuss. Briefly introduce your next capstone section. While this may seem redundant at each section it is important to remind the reader at the beginning of each section. Overview of Literature Concept 1 Research your topic in the library. Read articles dissertations and other scholarly materials. Elaborate on one concept that stood out to you as important for your manuscript. Overview of Literature Concept 2 Research your topic in the library. Read articles dissertations and other scholarly materials. Elaborate on one concept that stood out to you as important for your manuscript. Overview of Literature Concept 3 Research your topic in the library. Read articles dissertations and other scholarly materials. Elaborate on one concept that stood out to you as important for your manuscript.Method Briefly introduce your next capstone section. While this may seem redundant at each section it is important to remind the reader of your research at the beginning of each section. The reason for this In the event someone is interested in your research but they do not want to read the entire manuscript they can easily learn about your research in the beginning of every section. Research Method and Design Appropriateness Elaborate on the differences among various research methodologies. What are the differences between qualitative research and quantitative research Which was more appropriate for your study Why More than likely this will be a descriptive research project focusing more on the literature surrounding the topic rather than conducting actual quantitative or qualitative research. Population Discuss your study population. The study population is the larger picture of the research. If you were conducting research focused on childhood education your study population would include children who are in school. This may be at a local level state level national level or even at the global level. You determine the study population by how big you want the scope of your project to be. Sampling Frame Elaborate on your sampling frame here. The sampling frame is the smaller picture of the study population that you can actually obtain information from. For instance in the same research that is interested in childhood education the sampling frame may be 10 students from a local school. These ten students would then be used in your data collection process. Data Collection Discuss the collection of your data. Was it quantitative or qualitative How did you collect the data How did you protect the integrity of the data For our example if 10 nursing home residents could be interviewed; this would be qualitative in nature. Likewise conducting a numerical poll would be quantitative. If you conduct personal interviews you will want to ensure minimal researcher bias. Data Analysis Discuss the process where you analyzed your data. How did you analyze it If quantitative what statistical tool did you use If qualitative how did you interpret the information Findings Briefly introduce your next capstone section. While this may seem redundant at each section it is important to remind the reader at the beginning of each section. The following section will discuss the limitations use and applications of findings and recommendations of the research. Limitations Discuss the limitations of your study. Do not leave this paragraph empty; there are always limitations (e.g. time funding scope etc.). Use and Application of Findings Summarize your findings from your research. (For example: The use and application of these findings may contribute toby.). There should be at least 3 recommendations (each a separate paragraph). Recommendation: Type here. Thinking outside the box think of what recommendations you can make to improve the problem you have identified previously. Elaborate why your recommendation is appropriate. Recommendation: Type here. Thinking outside the box think of what recommendations you can make to improve the problem you have identified previously. Elaborate why your recommendation is appropriate. Recommendation: Type here. Thinking outside the box think of what recommendations you can make to improve the problem you have identified previously. Elaborate why your recommendation is appropriate.Conclusion Summarize your manuscript here. This is a summary of your entire capstone not just the last section. Your conclusion may end up being a few pages depending on the length of your research.
