9. Maria needs to find and review the literature for her study on the possession of weapons by students in high schools. Because she has not spent much time in the university library, she compiles a list of questions for her advisor: What is a literature review? Where do I begin in conducting a literature review? What are the best materials to include in my review and how do I locate them? Is it worth my time to search the Internet for the literature? Are there any shortcuts for identifying journal articles on my topic? Should I gather and summarize both quantitative and qualitative studies? How long should my literature review be? Do you have an example of a literature review that I might examine? As you begin to think about reviewing the literature for a research study, you may have questions similar to Maria’s.

10. What is literature review? A literature review is a written summary of journal articles, books, and other documents that describes the past and current state of information on the topic of your research study. It also organizes the literature into subtopics, and documents the need for a proposed study. In the most rigorous form of research, educators base this review mainly on research reported in journal articles. A good review, however, might also contain other information drawn from conference papers , books, and government documents. In composing a literature review, you may cite articles that are both quantitative and qualitative studies. Regardless of the sources of information, all researchers conduct a literature review as a step in the research process.

11. RRL sources are commonly classified into two major types; namely: Primary source- publications or writings wherein a researcher reports the results of their own studies. Example: Monthly, quarterly or annual journals. Secondary source- publications or writings wherein a certain author describes the work of another author. Example: Textbooks, encyclopedias, yearbooks As much possible, use the primary sources to avoid tampering and miscommunications on the data.

12. In identifying a possible source of your RRL, you can refer to the following characteristics below: The sources that you should use must be new or recent as possible. It must be unbiased and objective as possible. It must be relevant to your topic. It must be in adequate number, not too few nor too many.
