This document discusses the purpose and steps of conducting a literature review. It addresses:
1) Why a literature review is needed to identify knowledge gaps and answer research questions.
2) The process of defining concepts, including critiquing existing definitions and choosing or developing one's own definition.
3) Establishing a theoretical framework by developing hypotheses to be tested using empirical data or exploring concepts through an interpretive approach.

Research question no one has answered before- KNOWLEDGE GAP
It is a way to answer research question - RESEARCH METHODOLOGY It is a answer- Research Analysis Steps of literature review 1. Identify Knowledge gap: Must find it Convincing people that i am able to find out knowledge gap and der is a knowledg e gap 2. Defining Concept Illustrating different 5/6 concept in literature. crticising all of them and cho osing one of them or developing own concept what is love, which attribute of love, how do you define love Which definitionn do you like Which concept u adopt, which u left, why u aopt why u left others 3. Theoretical framework Interpretative : U do not have hypothesis. U try to explore and investigate Positive research: U have hypothesis and u test them using empirical data I deduce, conclude, extrapolate relationship through literature review KNOWLEDGE GAP: 2 school on knowledge gap: a) Popular school: Finding knowledge gap- I desribe all the block, crticise all d block and den tell the hole in between b) Creating knowledge gap : For nobel prize winner. Good in grounded theory rese arch, from scratch FIND KNOWLEDGE GAP Convincing people that i can find knowledge gap: 3 School for finding knowledge gap : Cone, Circle and Systematic - Most popular school is Cone method: Positive Role of ceo crtical success fact ors of Total qualitiy management in health sector in UK TQM Critical success factors Service Health Role of CEO Postive in UK Now total 5 paper i got. Now i crticise everyone. One has problem in methodology , 2nd is good is relevant in blab blab. I crticise i everyoneNo one dela with p roblem in this prescriptive This is my knowledge gap. - Next school of thought is circle - It involve different discipline - Next school of though is systematic. Knowledge gap should be serve by atleast 5-6 pages. Phd handles atleast 2 litera ture gap II. DEFINING CONCEPT What is the purpose of it. U have a research question and ur examiner wants to k
now each concept.
- Why do IS projects fails in realising success. What does IS means, What does IS project mean. which concept, US or UK, what is limitation, attribute, perspective of it. Which concept u have taken What does it mean by fail What does it mean by realising success. Is success is another word is another wo rd for beifits U must Show different definition U must crticise them U must show which definition u adopt There are different definiton. This definiton we do not follow, this is limited, this definition has proble. We have to crticise everyone and pick one den tell we would be using this Make it easy for examiner to read paper Crticise crticise and pick one Holistic definition : Crticise X, crticise Y, Crticise Z and develop based on al l 3 Crticise X, crticise Y, Crticise Z and redefine How u operationalise construct. If i say happiness den how i define happiness May be i define happiness by feeling depress. So i have to define it. Defining concept is important for analysis.
III. THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
Theoretical research is for positive research. and diff from positve research conceptual framework is from interpretative research Theoretical framework is set of hypothesis which will be tested X leads to Y leads to Z Rational for hypothesis : U have theory or idea regarding why did u say this How can i formulate this hypothesis from literature one - Traditional method: X affects Y (Find 10 paper which says X affects Y) No contribution to knowledge So how can i develop my hypothesis (book on facebook page of Amagadi) I believe: X affects L and L looks like Z (so assumption is der) and den X affec ts Z Peace life aafects Happiness and Happiness affects Depressed life
use more likewise. comparing ideas, take the same logic
IV How to write crticially
3 main things: Concept Structure Raw material I advise you to use these concept musch in writing a) contratsing concept: Although, However (Although ERP is a common system (reference), Failure rate of implementation is high) b) Supporting concept Likewise (Taking same logic in one situation and using it in another) X looks like Y and Y looks like Z and X affects L, so i Believe L affaects Z Neverthless, Nonethless
