As highlighted in a recent paper, systematic retrieval requires a transparent method for producing a structured review question, the availability of search strategies (or filters) to assist in sifting relevant studies from those likely to be irrelevant, and replicable and evidence-based search.
Five additional references that could be used for your research paper and include a 1-2 sentence description for each of the five additional references, explaining how they fit with the research topic and the research question proposed.
