Title: Strategies for Conducting a Comprehensive Literature Review in Dissertation Research

Before posting your Primary Response, create an outline, write a draft based on this outline, run a Grammarly report on the draft, and edit and revise as necessary. Provide scholarly sources to support your discussion as appropriate. Your responses should be the product of your own critical thinking and deductive reasoning.
Your literature review is, like virtually all components of your dissertation project, an iterative task that may change over time as you learn more about your topic. It is not a “one and done” project because of the learning process you will go through as you develop mastery in relation to your dissertation research.
In this Discussion Board (DB) assignment, reflect on the various strategies that you may need to develop in relation to various aspects of your work with the literature that informs your study. The following are some questions to consider for this DB assignment:
What are regarded as the top academic journals in your field or concentration, and how did you determine this?
What are the top publications in your profession or industry, and how did you determine this?
In general, what strategies are you using to support your search for relevant literature on your topic?
In what ways might you need to adapt those strategies to evaluate the usefulness of peer-reviewed versus gray literature sources?
