الإطار النظري في البحوث الاجتماعية؛ توظيف المقولات النظريةفي تفسير الظواهر الاجتماعية، دراسة تحليلية – تطبيقية
The research aims to clarify the concept of the theoretical framework and its pivotal role in conducting field social research, in addition to clarifying how to employ theoretical categories in explaining social phenomena. The research relied on the analytical-applied approach in studying the research topic. The research also concluded that theoretical selection represents one of the most important steps in the procedures of serious social research, which should be guided by a social theory from which the research hypotheses are derived, determine its approaches and methodology, and constitute the researcher’s reference in the process of analysing and interpreting the studied phenomenon. The research also recommended the need to hold academic lectures and seminars in the field of sociological theories on the importance of designing a theoretical framework in directing the steps of field research. In the end, the research recommended the need to develop students’ academic and applied skills in the field of employing the appropriate theoretical framework to study the research problem by holding training seminars at the bachelor’s degree to acquaint them with the importance of sociological theories and their pivotal role in field research.
