Literature Review-Final Paper

According to Machi and McEnvoy (2016), “a literature review is a written argument that supports a thesis position by building a case from credible evidence obtained from previous research (p.5)”.

 

The Literature Review Model

 

 

 

You must present a logical argued case about your topic. To do that you must present your literature review in two ways. First you will need to do the argument of discovery in which you discuss and explain what is known about the subject (Machi & McEnvoy, 2016). Then, you will utilized the argument of advocacy in which you analyze and critique the knowledge gained to answer the argument, which is the thesis statement (Machi & McEnvoy, 2016).

 

 

An argument is the logical presentation of evidence that leads to and justifies a conclusion (Machi & McEnvoy, 2016).

 

For example: More students are reporting depression since the shutdowns started (), there have been a high number of suicide deaths in 2020 (), and depression can increase the risk for suicide (), therefore; shutdowns during the Coivd 19 pandemic were damaging to student’s mental health. “Student’s mental health has been damaged during the Covid 19 pandemic” is the thesis of our argument ().

 

Make sure in your final paper that you can address the following questions.

1. What is the stated conclusion?

2. What is the evidence that supports this conclusion?

3. Is that evidence supported/convincing enough?

4. Does the evidence logically explain the conclusion?

 

In your final paper outline you should have stated several points or claims about your topic. Claims are declarations of a proposed truth (Machi & McEnvoy, 2016). You will need to provide evidence to support that claim. Evidence is your actual data or the data/ results from other studies (your sources). Providing the claim and evidence is not enough. You will need to also provide the warrant. The warrant provides the logic connection, whether it is indirect or not.

 

For example:

· You should not cross the street. (Claim)

· The signal is red. (Evidence)

· The unstated rule is that your stop on red. (Warrant)
