Accurate Citations
A literature review is a convention used by authors in most fields of research when preparing a manuscript. A literature review provides editors and reviewers an opportunity to examine past and current research trends that have led the current author(s) to make certain assumptions in their proposal. Thus, previous studies are used to provide support for an author's proposed rationale for a research study. In order to assess the validity of the cited studies, editors and reviewers must have the opportunity to review the original source material if necessary. Inaccurate citations can be a significant barrier to this process.
