Abstract
Search Methods for Identification of Studies: To identify studies to include or consider for this scoping review, the review team worked with a research librarian (OGC) to develop detailed search strategies for each database. The PRISMA-S extension was followed for search reporting. The research librarian (OGC) developed the search for APA PsycINFO (EBSCOhost) and translated the search for every database searched. The APA PsycINFO (EBSCOhost) search strategy was reviewed by the research team to check for accuracy and term relevancy, and all searches were peer-reviewed by another research librarian (AGS) following the PRESS checklist. The databases included in this search are PubMed (NLM), Education Resources Information Center (ERIC; EBSCOhost), National Criminal Justice Reference Service Abstracts (NCJRS; ProQuest), Applied Social Sciences Index & Abstracts (ASSIA; ProQuest), and Web of Science Core Collection (Clarivate Analytics), which were searched using a combination of keywords and subject headings. A grey literature search included ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Global (PQDT), Policy File Index (ProQuest), Rutgers University Don M. Gottfredson Library of Criminal Justice Gray Literature Database, Policy Commons, and TRIP Pro. All final searches were performed on May 15, 2023. The full search strategies as reported by the librarian are provided.
Description
A summary of the search results from databases: APA PsycINFO (EBSCOhost): 1,216 results; PubMed (NLM): 1,227 results; ERIC (EBSCOhost): 1,574 results; NCJRS Abstracts (ProQuest): 1,214 results; Applied Social Sciences Index & Abstracts (ProQuest): 310 results; Web of Science Core Collection (Clarivate Analytics): 665 results. The search resulted in 6,616 studies and 1,485 duplicate studies were found and omitted by the librarian (OGC) using the EndNote 20. This resulted in 5,100 records to screen from databases and 41 to screen from other methods, resulting in a total of 5,141 records. Studies were screened by title and abstract by two blinded and independent reviewers. If a tiebreaker was needed, a third reviewer was used. This process was repeated for full text screening and data selection.
