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

Used broadly to embody all sources that are original.

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.
