Four Models of Working Thesis:

Misinterpretations Model |
“Although many scholars have argued about A and B, a careful examination suggests C.” |
|
Gap Model |
“Although scholars have noted A and B, they have missed the importance of C.” |
|
Modifications Model |
“Although I agree with the A and B ideas of other writers, it is important to extend / refine /limit their ideas with C.” |
|
Hypothesis-testing Model |
“Some people explain A by suggesting B, but a close analysis of the problem reveals the possibility of several competing / complementary explanations such as C, D, and E.” |
