Abstract

CAVALCANTE, Lívia Teixeira Canuto  and  OLIVEIRA, Adélia Augusta Souto de. Methods of bibliographic review in scientific studies. Psicol. rev. (Belo Horizonte) [online]. 2020, vol.26, n.1, pp.83-102. ISSN 1677-1168.  https://doi.org/10.5752/P.1678-9563.2020v26n1p82-100.

The increase in scientific production in various areas of knowledge and the speed of its disclosure claim for studies aiming at the recognition of scientific advances. Different methods of literature review arise as alternatives for broad understanding of the knowledge of scientific production of a certain field, area or theme. These methods present variations in compliance and complexity, which, while maintaining commonalities, keep distinct goals. Thus, this study aimed to distinguish and identify the specificities of the methods of literature review that are used in the academic field through a literature narrative review. The study displays the importance of recognizing the complexity, compliance and breadth of each method in order to reach a better use. We have come to a conclusion that these types of studies come to be a privileged place for the proposal of social and educational policies, as well as means of criticism and theoretical and methodological development of science itself.

Keywords : Literature review; Method; Science.
