45PurposeThe purpose is to establish a framework for the research, so that readers can understand how it is related to other research.()To this complexity is added the need for introductions to carry the weight of encouraging the reader to read farther and to see significance in the study.()To distinguish subtle differences between introductions for qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods studies.()

56The concept is immature due to a conspicuous lack of theory and previous research.()A notion that the available theory may be inaccurate, inappropriate, incorrect, or biased.()A need exists to explore and describe the phenomena and to develop theory.()The nature of the phenomenon may not be suited to quantitative measures.()

67Researchers sometimes advance a theory to test.()They will incorporate substantial reviews of the literature to identify research questions that need to be answered.()A quantitative introduction may be written from the impersonal point of view and in the past tense, to convey objectivity.

1112PurposeThe purpose of reviewing studies in an introduction is to justify the importance of the study and to create distinctions between past studies and the proposed one. This component might be called setting the research problem within the ongoing dialogue in the literature.()This study is narrow and focused(and studies may not exist on it).If one broadens the review of the literature upward to the base of the inverted triangle, literature can be found, although it may be somewhat removed from the study at hand.
