Editor's Note:Identify Theoretical Foundations in Research

Abstract

The concept of theoretical foundations is anything that is attributed to and thought and opinion is needed to understand it. Concept is needed to express an opinion, and for this reason, concept or structure are components for subjective expression of opinion. The structure is often characterized by its components and dimensions. Each structure can have several general and minor components. When a concept or structure is presented in an objective and measurable form, it is called a variable. Hypothesis and theory are both types of opinions that are expressed by concepts; but theory is the same hypothesis substantiated or confirmed in particular processes. In general ,theoretical approaches provided the conditions for the establishment of intellectual and philosophical schools by developing answers to the components of philosophy in an intellectual field. In some sciences, such as geometry, mathematics, and physics, with the help of mathematical proof, theories have been transformed into theorems of high certainty (such as the central limit theorem in statistics or the Pythagorean Theorem in geometry). In some fields of the humanities, theories become the principles with the least conflict and general acceptance as they approach public human experiences, such as ethical principles, or management principles, and the like. Some of these principles express natural laws and describe the world order, so they are referred to as the law with the highest degree of public acceptance.
