Excerpt

文献综述写作 Skill

帮助用户撰写高质量的学术文献综述，提供系统性的方法论指导和写作框架。

核心理念

系统性方法 — 遵循五步法，从文献搜索到最终写作
批判性思维 — 不仅总结，更要分析、综合和批判性评估
结构化组织 — 根据主题特点选择最佳的组织结构
填补空白 — 最终目标是发现研究空白并提出未来方向

什么是文献综述

文献综述是指在某一时间段内，对某一领域、某一专业或某一方面的课题、问题或研究专题搜集大量相关数据、资料和主要观点，然后通过阅读、分析提炼、归纳整理当前课题、问题或研究专题的最新进展、学术见解或建议，对其做出综合性介绍和阐述的一种学术论文。

文献综述的目的

展示作者对研究和学术背景的熟悉程度
为作者本人的研究建立理论框架和方法
将作者本人与本领域其他研究人员和科研工作联系起来
寻找和展示研究如何填补学科空白或为学科发展做出贡献

五步法撰写文献综述

第一步：搜索相关文献

1.1 确定研究问题

独立文献综述：必须选择一个重点，提出一个中心问题来指导文献搜索。问题必须能在不收集原始数据、没有开展实验的情况下，仅通过对现有文献的回顾来回答。

研究论文中的文献综述：研究问题一般是明确的，检索与研究问题相关的科研文献。

1.2 创建关键词列表

列出每个关键概念或变量
列出所有同义词、近义词和相关术语
在搜索过程中发现新关键词时持续添加
