Systematic Reviews

A systematic literature review is a structured research method in which existing scientific studies on a specific research question are searched for, selected, and analyzed according to transparent and reproducible criteria. The aim is to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of research, identify research gaps, or synthesize findings from multiple studies.
