CCL Home > Reports & Data > Systematic Reviews
A Systematic Review is an approach to gathering, analyzing and synthesizing a body of research on a given topic. It includes clearly defined protocols and procedures ensuring accountability and transparency.
All tasks and decisions are documented allowing for the replicability of the review by others. Systematic reviews are typically collaborative in nature. The research team works in conjunction with professions, experts and practitioners in the field to ensure all key resources are accessed.
These reviews are comprehensive in the capture of literature, yet specific in scope. Criteria clearly define studies that are to be included or excluded in the review. In the final analysis and synthesis of a systematic review studies are evaluated on their methodological rigor and meta-analyses are conducted when possible.
