 What is It

What is Review of Related Literature?

✓ Review of related literature may be

defined as “written works collectively,
especially, that enduring importance,
exhibiting creative imagination and artistic
skill which are written in a particular
period, language and subject (Funk and
Wagnalls Dictionary 1976 as cited in
Calmorin)
✓ It is a written summary of journal articles,
books, and other documents that describes
the past and current state of information
on the topic of your research study.
✓ Is composed of discussions of facts and principles to which the present
study is related. For instance, if the present study deals with drug
addiction, literature to be reviewed or surveyed should be composed of
materials that deal with drug addiction.
✓ A type of academic writing that provides an overview of specific topic.
✓ Critically analyzes the relationship among different scholarly work and the
current work.
✓ It can be written as a stand-alone paper or as part of a paper.

✓ Review of Related Studies are studies, inquiries, or investigation either

published or unpublished already conducted to which the present proposed
study related or has some bearing or similarity.

✓ They are usually unpublished materials such as manuscript, theses, and

dissertation.

Goals of Literature Review

1. To demonstrate familiarity with a body of knowledge and establish credibility.

2. To show the path of prior research and how current project is linked to it.
3. To integrate and summarize what is known in the area
4. To learn from others and stimulate new idea.
5. To justify your choice of research question, theoretical or conceptual framework, and
method
6. To establish the importance of the topic
7. To provide background information needed to understand the study;

Rules for writing a literature review:

1. Define the topic and audience.
2. Search and re-search the literature.
3. Take notes while reading.
4. Choose the type of review you wish to write
5. Keep the review focused, but make if of broad interest.
6. Be critical and consistent.
7. Find a logical structure
8. Make use of feedback.
9. Include your own relevant research.
10. Be up-to-date in your review of related studies.

What, Where and How to Find Information

✓ It is necessary that you list down all the important variables which you
need in your study and any theories which you think can generate your
hypothesis/es and those that can explain the relationship among your
variables.
✓ After the variables are determined, the relationship between them posited
and either a preliminary hypothesis or investigative question stated, you
continue your search for information related to your problem being
studied.
✓ Check the population you want to include in your study.
✓ Know how to write citations where you can include the author, the title,
the publisher and the date of publication, the volume number, the page
number, information about the study and the findings. You should be able
to distinguish the editorial styles of formats of the following: The Modern
Language Association (MLA) and the APA style of the American
Psychological Association.
8
✓ Review and synthesize those findings that support or reject your
hypothesis or research question.
✓ Use on-line computers for searching and retrieval of information.
✓ Synthesize the reviewed literature.

TYPES OF LITERATURE REVIEW

1. ARGUMENTATIVE REVIEW. This form examines
literature selectively in order to support or refute an
argument, deeply embedded assumption, or philosophical
problem already established in the literature. The purpose
is to develop a body of literature that establishes opposite
perspective.
2. INTEGRATIVE REVIEW. This is considered a form of
research that reviews, critiques and synthesizes
representative literature on a topic in an integrated way
such that frameworks and perspectives on the topic are
generated.
3. HISTORICAL REVIEW. This is to systematically examine
past events to give an account of what has happened in the
past.
4. METHODOLOGICAL REVIEW. Reviewing methods of
analysis provides a framework of understanding at different
level, how researchers draw upon a wide variety of
knowledge ranging from conceptual level to practical
documents.
5. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW. This is to attain conclusion
regarding the chosen topic.
6. THEORETICAL REVIEW. This is to examine the body of
theory that has accumulated in regard to an issue, concept,
theory and phenomena

CHARACTERISTICS OF MATERIALS CITED
Sarno (2010) enumerated the different characteristics of the literature
and studies to be cited in the present study:
1. The materials must be as recent as possible, maybe 10 years back
2. Materials must be objective and unbiased as possible
3. Materials must be relevant to the study.
4. Coherence principle must be observed in writing literature review.

Seven Steps to Produce Literature Review

Source: http://unisheffieldlib-socialsciences.blogspot.com/2016/03/seven-steps-to-producing-literature.html

CITATION STYLE GUIDE

Reference is an important part of research paper. It must be consistent
and easy to read across different papers. Referencing is a method used to
demonstrate to the readers that you have conducted a thorough and
appropriate literature search, and reading.
1. APA (AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION). It is an
author/date-based style. This means emphasis is placed on the author
and the date of a piece of work to uniquely identify it.
2. MLA (MODERN LANGUAGE ASSOCIATION). It is most often applied
by the arts and humanities, particularly in the USA. It is arguably the
most well used of all the citation style.
3. HARVARD. It is similar to APA. Where APA is primarily used in the
USA, Harvard referencing is the most well used referencing style in the
UK and Australia, and is encourage for use with the humanities.
4. VANCOUVER. The Vancouver system is mainly used in medical and
scientific paper.

11
 5. CHICAGO AND TURABIAN. These are two separate styles but are
very similar like Harvard and APA. These are widely used for history
and economics.

Take Note!

APA IN-TEXT CITATION

✓ If you use the name of the author(s) in your writing, place the
year of publication of the work in parentheses after the author ’s
name.
Ex. Mullane (2006) conducted research into the effect of…

✓ If you refer to a work in the text of your paper, place the author's
last name and the year of publication of the work in parentheses at
the end of the sentence.

Ex. The research conclusively proved a correlation between the results

(Mullane, 2006).

REFERENCING SOURCES
Referencing your sources means systematically showing what
information or ideas you are quoting or paraphrasing from another author’s
works and where they come from. It is appropriately is important for some
reasons as stated below:
1. Adds authority to your work by supporting it with previous research.
2. Demonstrate reading and understanding of relevant literature.

12
 3. Enables the reader to track down the original sources to check its
quality
4. Ensures that you write in an ethical manner by giving credit to the
original authors (Demster & Hanna, 2016)

HOW WILL THE REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE BE PRESENTED?

1. CHRONOLOGICAL APPROACH. The literature is presented according
to time they were written, following the time-sequence pattern.
2. FINDING OR THEME APPROACH. Literature of similar findings or
themes are grouped together.
3. COUNTRY APPROACH. Literature is classified by country or into
specific country like the Philippines, or into foreign countries.

ORGANIZING A LITERATURE REVIEW

A successful literature review should have three parts that break down in the
following way:
A. INTRODUCTION
1. Defines and identifies the topic and establishes the reason for the
literature review.
2. Points to general trends in what has been published about the topic.
3. Explains the criteria used in analyzing and comparing articles.

B. BODY OF THE REVIEW

1. Groups articles into thematic clusters, or subtopics. Clusters may be
grouped together chronologically, thematically, or methodologically (see
below for more on this).
2. Proceeds in a logical order from cluster to cluster.
3. Emphasizes the main findings or arguments of the articles in the
student’s own words. Keeps quotations from sources to an absolute
minimum.

C. CONCLUSION
1. Summarizes the major themes that emerged in the review and identifies
areas of controversy in the literature.
2. Pinpoints strengths and weaknesses among the articles (innovative
methods used, gaps in research, problems with theoretical frameworks,
etc.).
3. Concludes by formulating questions that need further research within
the topic, and provides some insight into the relationship between that
topic and the larger field of study or discipline.

13
 Literature Review: Relational Words and Phrases

The entire point of writing a literature review is to synthesize, or write

about the relationships between, the articles you are using, defining the
connection between them, and explaining how they come together to
represent a body of knowledge on a subject. The following words and phrases
are useful because they express specific types of relationships between ideas.

on one hand rejects

on the other hand confuses
contrary to reinforces
in line with a similar focus/approach/tone
parallel to a slightly different focus/approach/tone

14
 Low Level Plagiarism
An example of this level may involve a student using a
paragraph or a few lines of a text without citing the
material properly. Most of the work, however, is the
student s own. May occur due to ignorance or
inexperience on the part of the student. Inadvertent or
unknowing plagiarism caused by poor research skills
and/or writing technique.

Medium Level Plagiarism:

Plagiarizing material or using an original idea of
someone else without crediting the source of the
material or ideas.

High Level Plagiarism:

Blatant plagiarism or the direct copying of another s
material without acknowledging that source. This also
applies to students who have been found guilty of
plagiarism in a prior instance.
