This literature review aims to integrate concepts from biomedical research related to your topic and to explore the literature encompassing your proposed research question or hypothesis. In this section of the proposal, you will review the findings in the individual empirical articles; organize the research in a meaningful way; evaluate the reliability, validity, and generalizability of the research findings, and present an integrated synthesis of the research that sheds new light on the topic you selected.

Therefore, before writing this literature review, conduct substantive new research via scholarly and peer-reviewed resources from within the University of Arizona Global Campus Library. Address methods of analysis commonly used in the applicable research for your topic, contrasting results and any surrounding cultural considerations.
