The Frame of Reference - Combines multiple theories or parts of theories into theoretical base - Uses those theories to define function and dysfunction - Identifies a way to evaluate - Identifies a way to promote change (postulate regarding change) - Suggests a means to put theories into practice (application to practice) Copyright © 2019 Wolters Kluwer • All Rights Reserved

The Theoretical Base - Sets the stage for the entire frame of reference - Most complex and abstract section of the frame of reference - Describes both constant and dynamic theoretical information - Constant theoretical information includes static phenomena - Dynamic theoretical information describes how change takes place - Contains assumptions, concepts, definitions, and theoretical postulates Copyright © 2019 Wolters Kluwer • All Rights Reserved
