Social Work Graduate Class: Literature Review Section for a Research Proposal. Research Question: How can education and training about domestic violence positively impact immigrant Latinas lives? What is a Literature Review? A literature review is a summary of the research that has been published about a particular subject. It provides the reader with an idea about the current situation in terms of what has been done and what we need to know. The articles used for a literature review must be from professional journals, which mean we can trust that the authors are trained professionals, and others have examined their work. Some studies are more easily read and summarized than others. Be sure you feel comfortable with your choices, since it is difficult to summarize ideas you don’t understand. Once you have found the articles, read them and take notes. Write the literature review from your notes. Writing the paper: A literature review usually has three sections although they will not be identified in the paper. 1) Introduction: Introduce your topic and briefly explain why this is a significant or important area for study. Define terms if necessary. 2) Summary of articles: In a paragraph or two for each study, briefly explain the purpose, how it was conducted (how information was gathered), and the major findings. When referring to an article, use the last name of author or authors and date of publication in the text. 3) Conclusion: Briefly summarize the major findings of the studies chosen. Comments about what questions need to still be answered may be included. 4) References: List the studies used on a separate page according to APA style format. Students are required to include 15-20 scholarly, peer reviewed journal articles to support their respective research question – focus on the Latinas population. 15 scholarly, peer-reviewed Journal articles written within the prior 10 years MUST focus on the Latinas population.
