This chapter focuses on the development of an introduction section of an IR. The chapter begins with the general topic background and identification of what is known and what gaps in knowledge may exist. A rationale for conducting the review will be articulated based on a preliminary review of what is known and not known. Additionally, if a theoretical framework has been introduced, the explanation of how this framework will guide the integrative review should be included. The concepts and variables are then defined. In the process of defining the concepts and variables, inclusion and exclusion criteria are then delineated. After the purpose and/or review question(s) is clearly articulated, the reviewer will then determine whether an integrative review is the method of choice. |
