These primary qualitative research studies must be somehow connected thematically. Limitations: The combination and complexity of incorporating diverse methodologies can contribute to lack of rigor, inaccuracy, and bias, methods of analysis, synthesis, and conclusion-drawing remain poorly formulated, issues related to combining empirical and theoretical reports. Erwin, Brotherson, and Summers (2011) define meta-synthesis as an intentional and coherent approach to analyzing data across qualitative studies (p. Therefore, this study applied an adapted version of the meta-synthesis method to analyze the existing literature and distill a proposal for a Metaverse.
When to use: To review experimental and non-experimental research simultaneously, to define concepts, to review theories, to review evidence/point out gaps in the literature, to analyze methodological issues. Whereas narrative synthesis allows researchers to address a broad. Well-done integrative reviews present the state of the science, contribute to theory development, and have direct applicability to practice and policy." In qualitative research, synthesis methods include narrative synthesis. Here, we introduce the concept of meta-integration. Integrative reviews, thus, have the potential to build nursing science, informing research, practice, and policy initiatives.
Definition: "A review method that summarizes past empirical or theoretical literature to provide a more comprehensive understanding of a particular phenomenon or healthcare problem (Broome 1993). As well as meta-ethnography, other methods have been developed more recently, including meta-study, critical interpretive synthesis and metasynthesis. A synthesis of quantitative data via a meta-analysis (if applicable) and/or narrative analysis.
