1. Clarify the research question
Use Perplexity or a general assistant to map key terms, populations, contexts, and nearby research areas.
预期产出: A revised research question plus keyword variants in Chinese and English.
2. Screen candidate literature
Use Elicit to find papers and screen abstracts by method, data, population, and relevance.
预期产出: A short list of candidate papers and a reason for including or excluding each one.
3. Build the source library
Save selected papers and metadata in Zotero, then attach PDFs and notes when available.
预期产出: A clean Zotero collection with tags or notes matching the research question.
4. Synthesize into a matrix
Use NotebookLM or the literature review matrix prompt on verified notes and abstracts.
预期产出: A review matrix with findings, methods, gaps, and links back to the original sources.
