Colorado State University Scientific Theory of Management Paper

Reading Time: < 1 minute

This week you will determine which theory from the scholarly literature most aligns with your own study. You will create a theoretical framework section of your proposal in which you state the theory, discuss the origins of the theory, who developed the theory, how the theory was developed, what the constructs of the theory are, how the theory has evolved through additional research since it was first developed, who contributed to its evolution, how it has been used in research up to this point, and why it is an appropriate framework for your own proposed study.

Your framework should be 1-2 pages in length (excluding cover page and references) and formatted according to the APA. Be sure to discuss and reference concepts taken from the assigned textbook reading and relevant research. You must include a minimum of three credible, academic or professional references beyond the text or other course materials. Review the grading rubric to see how you will be graded for this assignment.
