For this activity, you will use one of the quantitative and qualitative research questions developed in your previous peer activities. For each question, you will write a short reflective paragraph on how each type of literature review addressed in the module could help answer the research question (narrative, scoping, systematic review, meta-analysis).

Step 1: Review

Step 2: Respond

For each of your research questions, write a paragraph of between 100-200 words in which you reflect on how each of the types of literature reviews can help you to answer the research question.
