A Systematic Guideline Process for Writing a Review Article and Literature Review for Scientific Publications
Main Article Content
Abstract
Literature review procedures are currently regarded as research approaches that play an essential part in research and scientific publication. However, virtually all junior researchers lack a thorough comprehension of the literature review process, which results in missing, insufficient evidence, or a concentration on specific research concerns. It is one of the major causes of research and scientific publishing failures. Furthermore, study findings and publications on this issue are still fragmented, with particularly limited publications in Vietnamese of literature review research methodologies to advise undertaking research. This article investigated many types of literature review methods and suggested a basic procedure for performing an overview study as well as particular instructions for each approach. The research findings provide a systematic guideline to assist researchers in understanding the review process and using it to improve the quality of scientific research in the Vietnamese context.
