Systematic review asks: What works? Scoping review asks: What exists? Many researchers confuse the two! --------------------------------------- Learn in more detail in this accredited course: 🔗 systematicreview.razia-alian… ---------------------------------------- Here's when a scoping review makes sense: — You're exploring an emerging area — You want to identify what research methods people are using — You need to clarify how a concept is being defined — You want to spot where the research gaps are Stick with systematic reviews when: — You have a focused question — You need to inform policy or practice decisions — You want to compare interventions — Critical appraisal matters for your question --- 1/6
