DIFFERENT SOURCES OF RRL
PRIMARY AND SECONDAR
Review
of related literature is mostly known as the second chapter in almost every
empirical thesis.
it
is the very first step to know, to explore and to understand the area of
interest, moreover to select the variables and finalise the topic for the
study.
It
also plays a major role in the discussion section of the thesis. In fact,
review of related literature is required in every chapter of the thesis.
It
helps in defining your problem, identifying variables, framing objectives and
hypotheses, linking it with the methodology, formulation of Data Collection
tool and selecting appropriate statistical techniques, discussion on your
findings and giving suggestions.
Within the report there should be an adequate
review of the relevant literature.
The
literature selected should be sufficiently contemporary to demonstrate the way
in which the report is building upon recent
research.
For
writing literature review you need to follow certain rules, e.g. chronological
order, style of quoting the authors with year, paraphrasing the desired content and writing in your
words.
Primary Sources

Provide first hand information that is closest to the object of study.
Primary sources vary by discipline.
Academic journals
detailing the methodology used in
the research, in depth descriptions and
discussions of the findings are considered primary sources of information.
Primary sources include speeches, letters, diaries,
autobiographies, interviews, official reports, Court records, artifacts,
photographs and drawings.
Secondary Sources
A source that provides non original on second hand data or
information.
Written about primary sources
Research summaries reported in test books, magazines, and
newspapers are considered secondary sources.
