Empirical Research
• The first paragraph of the empirical literature clearly tells the reader what is included and how it is organized.
• Critical thinking is present and there is evidence of synthesis of the literature that is based on the literature matrix.
• Individual studies are presented as needed. All of the following elements are included and clearly stated: The review includes all of the major studies on the topic.
• The review includes recent research. Studies from other related disciplines are included, if appropriate.
• The eight articles from the literature matrix are in the review of literature (ROL).
• The last paragraph summarizes what is known about the research area and identifies the gaps in the literature. The paragraph includes a statement about how the literature supports your study.
Gaps from ROL
• and Summary Gaps from the literature are identified and described.
• Critical thinking is evident in summarizing the ROL.
• The summary includes all the key elements of the ROL.
Follows page recommendations:
Empirical Section: eight to ten pages
Theoretical/Conceptual: one to two pages.
Overview
You will write your Literature Review Section of your EBP Project Proposal. To conduct your literature review, you begin with the search strategy, gather your resources, then start writing your literature review and gap analysis.
Search Strategy
In the literature review section, you are to identify your search strategy, which can include the following:
the databases and internet sites or search engines used to explore the literature (CINAHL, Medline, Google, Yahoo, etc.)
the search terms you used
the beginning and ending dates of the period covered in this study
the time period when the search was conducted (e.g., Fall 2008)
any special journals hand-searched and any relevant sources used in performing the literature search
Description of Literature or Gaps in the Literature
The literature review section is a review of studies that are related to your phenomenon. It should take up about eight to ten pages, or approximately 3,000 to 4,000 words. The purpose is to tell the reader what is known about your phenomenon and lead the reader to what is not known about your phenomenon (your research problem). You should have sub-headings throughout this section of the paper.
The literature section discusses the relevant research related to your study. Do not discuss each study individually; instead, synthesize the literature based on your literature matrix. You can discuss individual findings of studies (include all eight studies that you described in your literature matrix in Weeks 4 and 9) as appropriate including the statistical findings and study samples. This section needs to tell the reader what is known about your clinical area of interest. You will also summarize your review of the literature and discuss the gaps you have identified.
