The third type of CRP that can be chosen involves conducting a comprehensive critical survey of the literature followed by addressing whatever questions (or other research foci) began the study, and then presenting some kind of original contribution to the field stemming from the literature review and the consideration of the research foci (i.e.., a clinical tool, training guide, etc.).
