• Analyze how the studies are similar in the ways each study tackled the research topic and how they are dissimilar.
• Evaluate the evidence of trustworthiness in each study. Is there anyevidence of lack of consistency or bias in the individual studies? Ifso, describe your concerns.
• Discuss any unresolved questions about your topic of interest thatwere raised by the studies. Explain how further research on this topicwould augment the findings of the studies you reviewed.
• Prepare an outline of the information you gathered from the foursources that could be used if you were to write a paper on your topic.Organize your outline as a logical flow of information that wouldexplain to a reader how you might synthesize the information across thefour qualitative research studies.
