Chapter I of Basic Research

In basic research, the first chapter is the Introduction. It introduces the


topic being researched and it provides the summary of settings of the
research that could help the reader to follow the idea of the paper. This
chapter includes different parts which will answer the questions of the
reader such as:

Background of the Study


This section of the Chapter I: Introduction explains the importance of the
particular research’s topic and its relevance to current situation in the
particular aspect. It also justifies the need for conducting the study through
providing general information and also, it summarizes the main aim of the
study.

Statement of the Problem


This section identifies the problem addressed by the study. It starts with
general problem to specific problem that can be resolved through focused
research and careful decision-making. For example, the research is about
customer satisfaction then, in the statement of the problem, the research
must able to identify the problem like decreasing sales or the irrelevant
products in current trends.

Scope and Limitation of the Study


This section explain the two important parts of the introduction which are
the scope and the limitations of the study. The scope of a study explains the
extent to which the research area will be explored in the work and specifies
the parameters within which the study will be operating. For example, in
customer satisfaction, the researcher will choose certain area because it is
impracticable to gather information from a large population thus, the
researcher will have to narrowed down the scope of the study. The
limitations are the boundaries of the study such as the sample size,
geographical location or setting in which the study takes place, availability of
respondents, time-frame, and other conditions.

Theoretical Framework
This section identifies the related theory(ies) in the study. It is a collection of
interrelated concepts which guides the research in determining things the
researcher must measure, and statistical relationships that must look for.

Conceptual Framework
This section illustrates the variables and the outcome of the study. It maps
out how these variables relate to each other and to the findings. For
example, in customer satisfaction, the researcher may use charts identifying
the inputs like demographic profiles; the process; and the output which is
the level of satisfaction of the customers.

Assumptions and Hypothesis


This section identifies the ideas of the researcher which is useful in creating
research design. Assumptions and hypotheses guides the researcher on
what things should be done and how they should be done to reach a
plausible conclusion.

Significance of the Study

2
This section identifies the contribution of the study in the particular aspect.
It includes the beneficiaries and the potential benefits that they could get
from conducting the study.
