How to start writing a literature review?

The literature review is one of the main elements of scientific research that must be found in every scientific research, and scientific research is not valid without the presence of the literature review, and the researcher must be careful during literature review  design to adhere to literature review design with all the terms of the literature review, as most literature review design is keen that the valid references. 

Where references are a key part of the literature review design, where references cannot be separated from literature review design, just as the literature review design is the second section in scientific research, which comes directly after the introduction, and the literature review size for scientific research is about forty to Fifty pages.

The literature review design is divided into the theoretical framework and previous studies, and the theoretical framework is not considered complete if it does not contain previous studies, and through the theoretical framework, the researcher undertakes an explanation of the interventions and the relationship related to the phenomenon, and the literature review forms the main and basic structure of the idea that the writer by studying it.

And through the theoretical framework, the researcher collects all the information that is related to scientific research, thus forming the backbone of scientific research carried out by the writer.

A good literature review design contains scientific terms that explain to the reader the matters contained in scientific research that you have done as a researcher and establish your reasons.

 Conditions of the literature review 

In order for the structure of a literature review to be good, it must achieve a set of conditions:

• The literature review should provide a great benefit to society and science, and the greater this benefit, the more important and valuable reviewing the literature will establish your reasons.
• The researcher must be careful while writing literature review to make it compatible with scientific research and the literature review design that the researcher performs and to establish your reasons.
• The literature review design should also be consistent with the structure of a review and study carried out by the researcher and establish your reasons.

​

 Structure of literature review 

1. The structure of a review works to ensure that the relationship between the similar variables is determined, and to ensure that the relationship between the different variables is identified among them, you must also define your topic and define and name the variables that are closely related to the research, and you must also take advantage of the sources and references in order to understand this relationship and establish your reasons.
2. The structure of a review makes the reviewing the literature very important. Through it, the reader feels the effort made by the reader so that he can accomplish this scientific research, and thus the relationship between the two parties is strengthened and the reasons are established.
3. The structure of a review also makes the theoretical framework a clear indication of the reader's love for the field of scientific research carried out by him and his knowledge of this field. In addition, reviewing the literature avoids the researcher from making mistakes in the previous researchers, and it also helps him to avoid plagiarism and the repetition of research carried out by other researchers, and establish your reasons.
4. The theoretical framework has a part attached to it that cannot be separated from it, and the theoretical framework will not be complete without it, which is previous studies.
5. And previous studies are defined as the previous sources and references that dealt with scientific research carried out by the researcher, and I talked about it according to define your topic.
6. And that previous studies will be linked to define your topic, and through the structure of a review make sure the ability to make comparisons between your scientific research and other research, and thus identify similarities and differences, which establish your reasons.
7. Previous studies also help the researcher to avoid mistakes made by other researchers, as well as avoid studying things that have been studied before, and thus save him effort and time.
8. In addition to that, the recommendations in previous studies play a big role in helping you to define your topic that was not studied before to begin studying your scientific research and establish your reasons, according to the determination of your subject.
9. The previous studies also play a big role in helping the researcher to develop questions and establish your reasons related to the scientific research that he undertakes according to define your topic.
10. In addition to that, previous studies play a large role in giving you a general idea about the field of scientific research according to define your topic, and increase your knowledge of this field.
11. The previous studies clarify the problem of your scientific research, establish your reasons, and they also provide it with a large number of sources and references that help you form sufficient information about your scientific research that you do according to define your topic.
12. And through previous studies, the researcher can know the things that he will develop through his scientific research, and he will also be able to determine the new discoveries that the scientific research that he prepares will present to society.
13. As a researcher, you must properly present previous studies and comment on these studies. In addition, you should take from previous studies the things that are appropriate for your scientific research only, according to your specific topic.
14. Identify review scope, when you write a review you should identify the review scope, where a researcher who write a review and do not identify review scope will not be able to produce good literature review. Reviewing the literature is a multi process stage, when you write a review and you are successful to identify review scope, your results will be good. Researcher who write a review and properly identify review scope will be successful in drafting successful review, when you write a review, and in order to identify review scope, you may consult your supervisor. when you write a review, and in order to identify review scope, you may also consult your friends. Moreover, when you write a review, and in order to identify review scope you can search for related resources that may guide you in the process.

In conclusion, the literature review can be seen as the research origin obtained from references, where the research origin is something that provide the basis for the research. The research origin obtained from references is the best way to describe the research origin in a way that ensure simplicity and clarity. Research origin is a must in scientific research, where research origin is the building block for your research, and that research origin will assist the researcher in further stages.
