 DEFINITION OF TERMS
● A literature review is both a process and a product.
● As a process, it involves searching for information
related to your topic, to familiarize yourself with the
relevant research and to identify issues and gaps in the
research.
● In most cases you're seeking to identify the key authors
and key arguments that are relevant to your topic, not to
exhaustively read everything written on the subject.
REASONS TO REVIEW THE LITERATURE:
● Identify the developments in the field of study
● Learn about the information sources and the research methodologies
● Find gaps in the literature that can become research questions
● Validate the originality of a research project
● Evaluate the methods
● Identify errors to avoid
● Highlight the strengths, weaknesses and controversies in the field of study
● Identify the subject experts
When writing your review, there are objectives
you should keep in mind:
● Inform the audience of the developments in the field
● Establish your credibility
● Discuss the relevance and significance of your question(s)
● Provide the context for your methodological approach
● Discuss the relevance and appropriateness of your approach.

Marian Joy S. Altar
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK:
A conceptual framework is a representation of the relationship
you expect to see between your variables, or the characteristics
or properties that you want to study. Conceptual frameworks can
be written or visual and are generally developed based on a
literature review of existing studies about your topic
THE DEFINITION OF TERMS
AS
USED IN THE STUDY
Marian Joy S. Altar
DEFINITION OF TERMS:
This gives your readers an understanding of the concepts
or factors that will be discussed throughout your study, as
well as contextual information as to how you will be using
those concepts in your study. The “Definitions of Terms”
ensures that your readers will understand the components
of your study in the way that you will be presenting them,
because often your readers may have their own
understanding of the terms, or not be familiar with them
at all.
