Scoping Review Dissertations & Theses: How to Plan for Success

With both dissertations and theses requiring a literature review, are you able to make it robust enough to stand on its own? If you aren't conducting a meta-analysis, is this just a throwaway section of your project? Not necessarily. With a little bit of consideration and planning before you start any project a scoping review may be the "best bang for your buck". In this seminar, we will discuss some of the things that go into planning and conducting a scoping review. Topics include Boolean string creation, picking good co-reviewers, evaluation using free software, table setup, and more.
