Under what conditions? What additional studies need to be planned to further our knowledge in your area of interest?Given what you have learned, provide a description of gaps in empirical knowledge, and how these gaps could be addressed in the future. How could the research you have reviewed, and your identification of knowledge gaps, impact social work practice?
