A literature review is a logical argument based on peer-reviewed research articles. The literature review demonstrates the researcher has thoroughly reviewed the relevant literature and based upon that review, has determined a need for further research. The literature review begins with a discussion of the study’s purpose and results, and then transitions to an argument for the need for further research. You should cite the results portion of other research in this paper and discuss needs for further research. The literature review for this assignment is based upon the topic identified in Module 2.
Instructions

• Create within the summary an argument for why this topic is important, and the issues and new research needs to address.
• This must be written in a research-scientific format as if it is to be submitted to a journal for publication (refer to APA handbook and guidelines)

Your review must:
