Indications for scoping reviews: clarifying working definitions, mapping broad or emerging literature, identifying knowledge gaps, and scoping before full systematic reviews.
PCC Framework & Protocol Drafting
Applying the Population, Concept, and Context (PCC) mnemonic to develop scoping questions, drafting an a priori protocol, and pre-registering on OSF.
Iterative Three-Step Search Strategy
Initial keyword probing, comprehensive search execution across multi-disciplinary databases, and forward/backward citation chaining to minimize missed studies.
Evidence Charting & Data Extraction
Developing and piloting standardized data charting forms, capturing study characteristics, concepts, methodologies, geographical distributions, and outcomes.
Collating, Summarizing & Thematic Synthesis
Narrative synthesis, qualitative mapping, visual diagrams of conceptual frameworks, identifying white spaces, and framing concrete recommendations for future research.
PRISMA-ScR Compliance & Manuscript Publishing
Verifying every item of the PRISMA-ScR checklist, writing an impactful discussion, avoiding critical appraisal pitfalls, and targeting high-impact Open Access journals.
