Introduction to Systematic Literature Review: Part 2. Scoping, Searching and Search Results Online

Systematic Reviews are a type of literature review which are comprehensive and replicable, ensuring that all relevant research is considered for inclusion.  This research method, which synthesises empirical research to build authority, originated in health and life sciences and has become increasingly popular in the social sciences.

In this second workshop (of three) we’ll focus on scoping your search, developing a search strategy and getting to a final set of results. This will include:

  • Scoping searches and development of keywords, including seed article analysis
  • Building a comprehensive search strategy in one database
  • Translating your search to multiple databases, and keeping track of these
  • Exporting and deduplicating results

This workshop is the second of a set of three; participants are strongly encouraged to attend all sessions, and should register for parts 1 and 3 separately.
