The processes involved include:reading and reflecting interacting with the literature/data and commenting on it identifying key themes and coding for them extracting from the codes 'gold dust'quotes to be used when writing up linking similar ideas from different articles/transcripts identifying contradictions in arguments comparing dissimilarities inarticles/transcripts building one's own argument/analysis with links to supportingevidence in the data/literature.Researchers have developed various strategies to deal with the amount of material aliterature review generates.
