Synthesis of Literature
The synthesis of literature should be no more than ten pages long and can pull from your assignment in DNP-820A. It should synthesize 15 original research studies, such as randomized control trials, synthesis of the literature with a meta-analysis, or quantitative studies. Book reviews and literature reviews should not be included. However, they should be reviewed to find sources for your literature review (i.e., hand search reference pages for applicable articles). All 15 sources should be no older than seven years. This section should reference the Literature Evaluation Table in Appendix B created in DNP-820A.
This section focuses on the scientific evidence rather than the researcher(s)’s opinion of the evidence. The studies you cite in this section must relate directly to your project. Everything should be connected in a way that is evident to the reader. In your synthesis, you should address the similarities, differences, and controversies in the body of evidence. Additionally, there should be a minimum of one original research article that discusses the specific instrument, tool, or intervention that you will be implementing in your project. Another two to three articles that support the use of this intervention at other sites should also be discussed. Synthesis of Literature
