Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Because it would be very time consuming to search the literature and determine whether the listed sources are relevant,the reviewer should review the reference list and determine the focus of the sources,the number of data-based and theoretical sources cited,and where and when the sources were published.Locating and reviewing all abstracts would be too time consuming and may not be possible.Meta-analysis and meta-synthesis are not done when critically appraising a literature review.These techniques are used to perform an in-depth analysis of studies already cited in the literature.It is not necessary at this point to search the literature to determine other relevant sources.
