An integrative review is a research methodology that involves synthesizing and analyzing a wide range of literature on a particular topic to provide a comprehensive understanding of the subject. This type of review combines findings from different types of studies, including qualitative and quantitative research, to provide a holistic view of the topic at hand. Integrative reviews typically seek to identify common themes, patterns, and gaps in the existing literature, and may also offer insights into future research directions or practical implications. This type of review is particularly useful for generating new insights, theories, or frameworks that can inform future research or practice in a given area.
