Literature Review for Medical Research
An empirical research paper is a report of an original study that you design and data that you collect, perhaps from interviews, experiments, surveys, or observations in the field. Such data are called primary data.
A research paper may also include secondary data—results from studies by other researchers that are relevant to the design of your study and the analysis of your data.
Reminder of a Literature reviews:
the ideas, theories, and findings of scholars in academic journals or books contribute to what researchers call “the literature” on a topic.
A review of the literature may be incorporated in other types of papers, especially empirical research papers and laboratory reports. In an empirical research paper, the literature review part of the paper is typically more extensive and longer than in a laboratory report.
In an empirical research paper, state a research question or a hypothesis, briefly describe the work of others on the topic, present the methods you used to collect your data, analyze the data you collected, summarize important findings, analyze others’ data in light of your own, and draw conclusions.
For example, to investigate the extent of and attitudes toward cheating on your campus, you might design a survey to give to students and then follow up the survey with one-on-one interviews.
The data you collect from the survey and the interviews are your primary data.
Briefly describe other researchers’ work on the topic, giving an overview of the literature before presenting your own procedures and results. And you would use previous findings in your analysis of cheating on your campus.
