How to write a literature review? What is the basic structure?

(1) Cut to the chase and don't beat around the bush. Avoid long-winded narration of historical origin and research process.

(2) be concise. We shouldn't talk too much about the familiar common sense content of colleagues and textbooks. When it is really necessary to mention other people's research results and basic principles, we only need to mark them in the form of quotations. In the introduction, when putting forward the work and opinions of this paper, we should make the meaning clear and the language concise.

⑶ Reviewing history should be focused, the content should be closely related to the title of the article, and the background should be introduced around the title, which can be summarized in a few words; Don't write out the methods and results and don't discuss them when prompting the methods used; Although the contents of past documents can be quoted appropriately, they should not be listed in detail, and the preface should not be written as the historical development of research.

Don't write the preface as a small summary of the literature, let alone repeat the common sense content already in the textbook or known by researchers in this field.

(4) Respect science and seek truth from facts. In the preface, we should properly evaluate the value of the paper, seek truth from facts and use scientific words. For the innovation of this paper, it is best not to use inappropriate self-evaluation such as "This study is the first report in China", "Filling the domestic blank", "High academic value", "This study has not been reported in China" and "This study is at the leading level at home and abroad".

5. The content of the introduction should not be the same as the abstract, and attention should be paid to using polite terms, such as "limited knowledge", "limited level", "please correct me" and "throwing bricks to attract jade"; It is best not to discuss the preface in sections, not to illustrate and list, not to deduce and prove formulas.

Basic structure:

(1) Research significance in this field.

(2) Research background and development in this field.

(3) Current research level, existing problems and possible reasons.

(4) Overview of further research topics and development direction.

(5) your own views and feelings.
