SWK 2281 CAU The Process of Finding Evidence Based Materials Paper

PART ONE – THE SEARCH PROCESS:

Please write: 

1. Source description: Please provide a description of the databases or other sources you utilized, along with your rationale for choosing them. Remember that you can draw from databases, as well as appropriate grey literature sources. 

2. Search term description: Please identify the initial search terms you utilized for each facet of your search. 

3. Description of the process: Your review process should be replicable, so please provide the following information for each search: 

    a. Name of the database

    b. Date you searched the database

    c. Limits used, if any

    d. Actual search strategy

    e. Results 

4. Please discuss the evolution of your search process. Think about questions such as “How did you address problems (like finding too much or not enough information) that arose?”, “How and why did you adjust search terms?”, “What was it that led you to believe that you had accessed the most relevant information possible and that your search had been successful?”. There may be other questions to address, but this gives you a start.
