Order Description PURPOSE: To assess the ability to explore and answer a research question by demonstrating critical analysis and perceptive scholarship to draw conclusions. Abstract (300 words max.) The abstract contains a statement about the focus of the review, key findings and implications/conclusion. Introduction Situates the review within a larger context The introduction establishes the context of the review within relevant and related knowledge, clearly establishing the rationale for the review. Review topic A clear statement of the aim/focus of the review, intervention or phenomena of interest is presented and, where relevant, the population of interest (e.g., elite athletes). Main body of review The review is comprehensive, relevant and contains recent literature. The student reviews research relevant to the topic, including seminal/major works and recently published literature. The literature is critically appraised and synthesised to create a clear, logical and compelling argument. The breadth and depth of the survey of relevant literature and evidence of critical understanding is appropriate. The strengths and weaknesses of the included studies must be discussed. Methodological considerations and limitations in the literature are addressed. The student crafts a clear, logical and compelling argument. Appropriate use of figures and tables (optional). Appropriate figures and/or tables have been used to summarise content. For example, a table describing the individual studies included in the review, including characteristics such as the population under study, the intervention used, and the study findings. Clear legends and captions provided. Conclusion Key messages are summarised and the conclusions are based on the best available scientific evidence. Implications for practice flow logically from the discussion, and gaps in the literature are highlighted for future research. Referencing Referencing in text and the reference list comply with SAGE Harvard guidelines OR the author guidelines for the target journal. All references listed in-text appear in the reference list (and vice versa). Clarity of presentation The manuscript is well written, with few grammatical, punctuation or typographical errors. There is evidence of careful proof reading.
