1. 0:00welcome your honors
2. 0:02to a new episode where we will discuss a new topic
3. 0:05the last thing we discussed before this episode
4. 0:08was prevailing and relevant literature
5. 0:11today we will discuss the steps of writing a literature review in details
6. 0:18the definition of literature review, in the majority of the books
7. 0:22is three major steps in developing scientific literature review
8. 0:31we can sum up them as follows
9. 0:34step one identification, step two evaluation
10. 0:43three documentation meaning writing
11. 0:47what is the meaning of each?
12. 0:49this what we will discuss
13. 0:51identification, it is important when doing literature review
14. 0:55to review every thing published about your topic
15. 0:58and we made that clear in the episode related to literature named relevant and prevailing
16. 1:04we said that relevant and prevailing covers all about you topic
17. 1:10the context, problem, research questions
18. 1:13which you did a whole chapter about
19. 1:14introduction and problem definition
20. 1:17and to be relevant, what does it mean?
21. 1:19by mentioning what you will use and what you will not
22. 1:23identification here covers also the published and the unpublished
23. 1:26we will stop at this idea to understand
24. 1:30the difference of the published and the unpublished
25. 1:32what do the published and unpublished mean ?
26. 1:37and from where i can bring them?
27. 1:38we have two steps which we will discuss
28. 1:40documentation here is up to the scientific format
29. 1:44or the scientific documentation format
30. 1:46required by your university
31. 1:49many business or social studies universities can be using APA
32. 1:54which is American psychological association
33. 1:57or it can be other formats such as turabian, Chicago, ISO and so on
34. 2:03today will mention some ideas of APA format
35. 2:07and there will be an episode for it only to explain how we can write using APA format
36. 2:13the third step, evaluation
37. 2:18should these steps follow one another ?
38. 2:24no, an iterative process
39. 2:27you get to know in it the scientific resource
40. 2:32that you are reading be it paper, thesis, dissertation, scientific paper from a journal or from conference
41. 2:39then evaluate and document it
42. 2:41you document, identify and evaluate
43. 2:43it is slightly blended steps
44. 2:47meaning mixed up together when writing your literature review
45. 2:50what are the ideas on which i can make evaluation?
46. 2:54they are so many and it covers approximately all the components
47. 2:57and items found in the problem definition
48. 3:00you can compare it with the topic as a title, with the abstract, with the nine elements
49. 3:06as a model we have represented and we mentioned that it can help you in defining
50. 3:10business research problem
51. 3:12it is possible that it will not be suitable for all the scientific problems
52. 3:15but it is slightly close to business management and social studies
53. 3:20stakeholder analysis, what did they say?
54. 3:24what did they refuse, approve and add ?
55. 3:27the major questions, minor questions, claims
56. 3:31which are the answers related to each minor question and answer it
57. 3:36through the problem definition
58. 3:38and the variables be it from different types
59. 3:42and we will see this in the episode which is about the forms of variables
60. 3:46let's concentrate , the first question what are these three major components of literature review ?
61. 3:52identification, evaluation, documentation
62. 3:56do they have an order? no, they are blended
63. 3:59how can i write documentation? we will have an episode where we will discuss it
64. 4:02how can i do evaluation? these are the major ideas
65. 4:05and we will integrate commenting on it in the episode of documentation
66. 4:08so let's start with identification
67. 4:11what does it mean?
68. 4:13in fact, identification is related to the value of the literature
69. 4:18then what is the value and the aim of the literature?
70. 4:21it can be summed up in this slide
71. 4:24in this slide we have the idea that the literature review can help you
72. 4:28in many main things, many main aims
73. 4:32ensures that important variable are not left out of the study
74. 4:35it is illogical to forget an essential variable related to your phenomena
75. 4:41or you did not notice it, or found it
76. 4:43this can not happen, why?
77. 4:45because this variable will not be mentioned
78. 4:47and in accordance with the principle of objectivity
79. 4:50everything should be linked together, the problem with the literature
80. 4:54with the research design
81. 4:56but i did not found the variables in the literature
82. 4:59as a consequence i will give an incorrect definition to the problem
83. 5:02literature not accurate then i will have a weak research design
84. 5:05helps the development of the theoretical
85. 5:08framework and hypotheses for testing
86. 5:11what is hypotheses? we agreed in the section of test-ability
87. 5:17that it is the relation of the variable with the phenomena
88. 5:19of course we will be introduced to the different variables and phenomena
89. 5:23in an episode named the types of variables
90. 5:28it says that relation affects either the amount, direction and significance as we agreed
91. 5:35in the characteristics between the variables
92. 5:40and this will help us build the theoretical framework
93. 5:43in the place of research design
94. 5:45as a consequence if we did not have the literature
95. 5:47a theoretical framework which integrates
96. 5:50claims in the problem definition
97. 5:52and the selected literature it will disappear
98. 5:55and if it exists it will be weak
99. 5:58ensure that the problem statement is precise and clear
100. 6:00of course because when i was reading the literature
101. 6:03i understood the variables and then i did an investigation
102. 6:06it is very possible that from your reading to the literature
103. 6:09and this is the normal the revise the problem
104. 6:11is it written correctly? does it need more investigation?
105. 6:14should I meet other stakeholders ? look for reports?...
106. 6:18enhances testability and replicability
107. 6:21testability that is hypothetical statement
108. 6:24testability meaning to develop a hypothetical statements
109. 6:27therefore, the research will be testable because there is a hypothetical statement
110. 6:32linking the problem with literature review
111. 6:36replicability because i built on literature
112. 6:39what does replicable mean?
113. 6:41means similar problem the same design almost similar outcome
114. 6:47how will this happen? when it will be totally integrated
115. 6:49built, and accumulated on the basis of the existing literature
116. 6:53reduces the risk of reinventing the wheel
117. 6:56in fact, it is very possible when you start the literature you will stop
118. 6:59meaning that you did not complete the scientific research
119. 7:04a project or a whole research, and what did i do?
120. 7:07you thought and worked in a scientific way
121. 7:09how? meaning that you wrote a problem definition
122. 7:13with all its components
123. 7:16then you moved forward successful to the literature
124. 7:19and when you found relevant literature i used it
125. 7:23this is it then i stopped
126. 7:24as if you did a problem definition and literature review
127. 7:27these steps help you to define the problem very well
128. 7:32then you chose and applied a suitable scientific solution
129. 7:35are not we going to do a research design?
130. 7:37we will do a research design if we found that the existing
131. 7:40does not match, there is not a similarity to a great degree
132. 7:45to apply it on our research , this is the decision of the researcher
133. 7:47and someone should revise it with him/her
134. 7:50supervisors or any external experts, reviewer or a supporter with you
135. 7:57as principle investigator who can make sure that you done it well
136. 8:00the last thing, confirms that the problem is perceived
137. 8:05as relevant and significant
138. 8:07that this problem is real and we need it
139. 8:09related to the reality we need, not only that which exists as a practical context
140. 8:15in the field or the environment
141. 8:16but also the actual reality which exists in the science
142. 8:19it is a relevant product to be investigated and it might add
143. 8:25even slightly something to the literature but it will add
144. 8:30all the well conducted scientific research will add something big or small
145. 8:35this is a matter of quality but it will add, why?
146. 8:38because all these conditions are achieved
147. 8:41in terms of the literature review
148. 8:44here we will stop at this section
149. 8:46we have slightly made clear the meaning of literature
150. 8:50its usefulness, what can the good literature add of these items we explained now
151. 8:57and at the same time the major steps of developing literature review
152. 9:02what are the next steps?
153. 9:04in the following episode we will discuss more how to
154. 9:08know and differentiate between literature reviews or papers
155. 9:13resources, or different sources
156. 9:16and how to differentiate between published and unpublished
157. 9:18thank you so much, and we shall meet in the next episode
158. 9:21goodbye
