Writing a Literature Review
When writing a Lit Rev, you need to understand its functions, i.e. a Lit Rev
- helps to justify the research topic and questions you have chosen
- helps to ascertain the importance of the topic
- provides background information relevant to your study
- demonstrates that you are familiar with the research topic
- ideally sets your research as part of the chain of research in the field
- is selective in which literature to include - according to its relevance to the research questions
- should adopt the funnel approach of starting out wide and narrowing quickly towards the specific research questions
Sources that make up the ‘literature' under review include:
• journal articles
• monographs
• computerized databases
• conferences proceedings
• empirical studies
• government reports and reports from other bodies
• statistical handbooks.
Questions that should guide your Lit Rev are:
• What has been done in your field of research?
• How are you going to order your discussion? Chronological, thematic, conceptual, methodological, or a combination?
• What section headings will you use?
• How do the various studies relate to each other? What precise contribution do they make to the field? What are their limitations?
• How does your own research fit into what has already been done?
