Abstract
Using a standard method for conducting a systematic literature review is always a choice among a few global practice recommendations. In order to support our literature review process as evidence-informed, we conducted a comparative review of the two most popular schools of thought - PRISMA Statement and the Cochrane Handbook. We concluded with the statement that these two methods are not mutually exclusive, but rather supplementary to each other.
Description
The Research and Evaluation Team of Access Alliance completed a review and comparison of the PRISMA Statement and Cochrane Review as part of an ongoing KMb initiative in their current CYRRC-funded project: “Implementation Research on the Impact of Social Isolation on Refugee Children and Youth: their Resilience and Coping Mechanisms”.
