Literature Review
-overall purpose of literature review in a study is to present a systematic state of the science
on a topic (ex. what research exists)
-major goal = to develop a strong knowledge base to conduct a research study or
implement an evidence-based practice/QI project and carry out research
-a systematic and critical appraisal
-a broad, comprehensive, in-depth, systematic critique and synthesis of publications,
unpublished print and online materials, audiovisual materials, and personal communication
-Provides the development and foundation of a research study
-Provides the development and foundation of the theoretical framework
-ESSENTIAL to all quantitative and qualitative research studies

Theoretical or Conceptual framework
-The basis for the development of research questions or hypotheses
-identifies concepts/theories used as a guide or map for developing research questions or
hypothesis
-Can be viewed as a map for understanding the relationships between or among the
variables in quantitative studies
-Presents the context for studying the problem
-Often illustrated using a diagram
-Integral to practice and research
-provides rational and definition for the variable(s) and concepts studied
