The literature review should include different subtitles and it should include ‘intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation’. This should be concerned with informing practice with theory.

 

1)      Chapter 2 would normally consist of your analysis of the literature. In effect you are trying to answer the question: “what is already known about this issue/problem?” There needs to be enough of a literature review to show that useful data already in existence has informed your efforts. One feature might be to show how your understanding of this secondary data has helped you to formulate questions you have used in your primary data collection. Another, not necessarily competing, approach might be to use some “model” as a way of organising the data. Models may be already in existence as expressions of a particular theory which you are using to underpin your work, or they may be created by you as a way of helping the reader to better understand what you have done. In general, showing that you understand the existing literature relevant to your research topic is a vital aspect of your dissertation. Remember you are writing a dissertation and so you need to show the breadth and depth of the literature search which has informed your research and the academic debate surrounding the issues considered. Some further thoughts on reviewing the literature are presented in Appendix F

 

All quotations must be clearly acknowledged. If you are merely quoting a phrase or a few words, it is sufficient to indicate this by using inverted commas in the main text, with the source in brackets e.g., As Spinelli (1989, p5) claims “Phenomenologists deny the possibility of correct interpretations . . . “. If the quotation is longer, indent it and use single spacing e.g., As Terry concludes

” . . . since 1979, far from using their greater power to destroy or ignore shop steward organisation, management have continued to influence both the shape of that organisation and the role it performs . . . managers remain wedded to the principle of the `collectivised’ workforce . . . to facilitate the handling of relationships between management and workers”. (Terry, 1983 p57)

Reviewing Literature

Any research project whatever its scale will necessitate reading what has been written on the subject and gathering it together in the form of a critical review which demonstrates some awareness of the current state of knowledge on the subject, its limitations, and the way the proposed research aims to add to what is known. Indeed one of the criteria for any research degree is to demonstrate a critical awareness of background studies and matters relating to the thesis.

Whilst literature searches and reviews take place early in the research sequence keeping up to date with the literature on the topic of course continues throughout the period of the research. At this stage it is appropriate to make three important cautionary points. First, it is not uncommon for researchers to become bogged down in reading the literature so that it not only becomes a means of avoiding the tough process of writing, but also often seems to become unhelpful in advancing original ideas, by the student becoming submerged in those of other people. Accordingly the state of the literature search needs to be kept under close review in consultation with the learning set so that becoming overly concerned with other researchers’ work at the expense of creativity is avoided.

Secondly, writing literature reviews can be a demanding exercise for a critical review should provide the reader with a statement of the state of the art and major questions and issues in the field under consideration. Often they simply seem to be uncritical catalogues of all that has been found which vaguely relates to the topic regardless of the merits of the work. What is instead required is an insightful and critical evaluation of what are known which leads naturally to a clarification of the gaps in the field and the way in which the proposed research is intended to fill them. Hence you need to develop an organising framework or model to enable you to select order and evaluate the relevant literature.

Thirdly, it is most important when embarking on a literature search to ensure that everything that is read is noted systematically at the time. After quite a short period the likelihood of remembering is remote and much time may accordingly be wasted at later stages of the research, for example, in locating a precise reference if it has not been recorded when read. Most usefully such records are best kept on a card index or even better on a computerised file so that they can be searched, added to, and sorted in multiple ways as required. Once a system is decided upon it is advisable to stick to it.

Useful guides to conducting literature searches and reviews may be found in Hussey & Hussey (1997) and Saunders et al (1997). See also the resources on line list for other sources of advice and information.

In summary it is necessary in order to make a start on a research topic to identify the broad area in which the work will be conducted and then to focus down into a manageable topic? The next step is to make a plan by which stages in the research will be achieved. Alongside these early activities it will be necessary to search the literature relating to the field under study to look for gaps in the broad area and to get an early appreciation of work already completed or underway.
