Searching Information Sources with a Focus on the Creation of Systematic Reviews in the Field of Special Education

Summary/Abstract: The creation of a search strategy and conducting the search in various information sources is recognized as a critical component of the systematic review methodology that affects the quality of the final outcomes produced by these studies. Despite the importance of this step, little in the way of bestpractice was published in (special) educational journals. This article describes the whole procedure of the search process and the importance of the role of information specialist in the systematic review´s team. This procedure includes the development of a search strategy, balancing demands forspecificity and sensitivity of the search strategy, selection of databases/other information sources, conducting searches, translating search strategies between databases/other information sourcesand documenting how the searches were conducted. This article explains all these steps according to the methodologies developed by JBI and optimization techniques based on international research outcomes. Searches realized in systematic reviews should include preliminary, primary, secondary,and tertiary searches. Mainly, the primary search when the appropriate search strategy is developed based on the teamwork and using specific strategies is essential to achieve non-biased conclusions.
