  1. Literature Review and SLR

SLR Template

A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) template is a structured framework used for conducting and documenting a systematic review of existing research studies on a specific topic or research question. Systematic literature reviews are commonly used in academic and research settings to provide a comprehensive and unbiased summary of the available literature on a particular subject. Here's a template for conducting a systematic literature review:


Systematic Literature Review (SLR) Template

1. Title:

  • Provide a clear and descriptive title for your systematic literature review.

2. Objective:

  • State the main research question or objectives of the systematic literature review.

3. Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria:

  • Define the criteria for selecting and excluding studies. This may include criteria related to publication date, study design, geographic location, and relevance to the research question.

4. Search Strategy:

  • Describe the search strategy used to identify relevant studies, including databases searched, search terms, and any filters or limits applied.

5. Study Selection Process:

  • Outline the process for screening and selecting studies, including how duplicates were handled and the number of reviewers involved.

6. Data Extraction:

  • Specify the data extraction process, including the data items collected from each selected study (e.g., author, publication year, study design, key findings).

7. Quality Assessment:

  • Explain how the quality or risk of bias of the included studies was assessed (e.g., using quality assessment tools or scales).

8. Data Synthesis:

  • Describe how the data from the selected studies were synthesized and analyzed. This may include narrative synthesis, meta-analysis, or thematic analysis.

9. Results:

  • Present the main findings of the systematic literature review, including key themes, trends, and conclusions drawn from the included studies.

10. Discussion: - Interpret the results in the context of the research question and objectives. Discuss the implications of the findings and any limitations of the review.

11. Conclusion: - Summarize the main contributions of the systematic literature review and provide recommendations for future research or practice.

12. References: - List all the studies included in the systematic literature review following a consistent citation style (e.g., APA, MLA).

13. Appendices: - Include any supplementary materials, such as flowcharts of the study selection process or data extraction forms.

14. Acknowledgments: - If applicable, acknowledge individuals or organizations that provided support or assistance during the review process.


This template can serve as a guide for conducting and documenting a systematic literature review in a structured and transparent manner. Adapt it to your specific research topic and requirements, and ensure that your systematic literature review adheres to established guidelines and best practices in the field.
