Literature Review & Research Gap Identification

Establishing a Clear Direction for Your Research

A robust literature review is not just a summary of the past work. It is a critical analysis of the current research, theoretical underpinnings, and areas that need to be investigated further. A study can be original and less meaningful unless appropriate identification of the gap in research.

Research Orbit is a structured academic service with the aim of assisting scholars to develop a composed literature base and the research gap that warrants their research.

All services

The Purpose of a Literature Review

An appropriately compiled literature review ought to:

  • Show the knowledge of major theories and models.
  • Assess previous studies and procedures.
  • Determine patterns, trends and contradictions.
  • Identify shortcomings in the past research.
  • Develop the theoretical base of the study.
  • Support the rationale of the proposed study.

Our Service Structure

1. Research Scope Understanding

We start by discussing your research topic, objectives, and academic requirements in order to determine their correspondence with your study objectives.

2. Systematic Literature Identification

Identifying the relevant academic materials, peer-reviewed journals and academic publications within the field of your research.

3. Thematic Organization

Categorizing studies into themes, structures or variables to form a coherent and orderly review.

4. Critical Evaluation

Methodological, findings, strengths, and limitations analyses of the existing research in order to give it academic depth.

5. Research Gap Identification

Clear articulation of:

  • Under-explored variables/relationships.
  • Limitations in previous studies Methodological.
  • Incongruent or inconsistent results.
  • New fields that need to be explored.
  • Gaps in research that are contextual or population based.
6. Conceptual Framework Development

Organizing conceptual grounds that facilitate your proposed research model.

7. Referencing & Formatting

Formatting to any academic style, e.g. APA, MLA, Harvard, or Chicago.

Who This Service Is Designed For?

This service is suitable for:

  • PhD Scholars
  • M.Phil Researchers
  • Master's Students

Our Academic Approach

We emphasize:

  • Descriptive summaries replaced by analytical writing.
  • Coherent development of thoughts.
  • Good relationship between literature and research goals.
  • Adequate academic referencing.
  • Copies of work that are free of plagiarism and original.

Why Research Gap Identification Matters

The originality of the study is determined by research gap identification. It proves that your research:

  • Contributes new knowledge
  • Answers unanswered concerns.
  • Brings about advancement in available methodologies.
  • Develops theoretical or practical knowledge.

Build a Strong Research Foundation

When it comes to preparing a thesis, dissertation, research proposal, or journal article, structured literature review and gap identification support can be of great assistance to improve the quality and direction in which your work is going.

The Contact Research Orbit is used to create a clear, orderly, and scholarly literature structure of your study.
