Illustrative examples of the four deliverables of the agile literature review approach (academic-oriented type - Housing Studies)

 Drawing on my study note on the research gap-translation exercise to firm up on a research gap idea, I present an example on each of the four agile literature review approach (ALRA) deliverables for an academic-oriented dissertation project [for Housing Studies] as follows:

Deliverable 1: a research gap-translation diagram:

A research gap-translation diagram indicates the endeavor to firm up on the overall research gap (Domain C) about "inadequate usable theories and supportive empirical findings for informing the analysis of the intellectual curiosity of the researcher in Domain A" (Domain A being the triggering point of intellectual curiosity of the researcher).

For component C, the gross research gap position statement could be expressed in a clearer style as follows: the existing academic literature on the topic of homelessness is inadequate to [help the researcher] to find out the homelessness and [homeless] dynamic for generation X in Shamshuipo [as indicated in component A]. Such gross research gap position statement subsequently supports the formation of a number of research gap items as stated in the research gap-objective table (Deliverable 2).

Deliverable 2: a research gap-objective table:

Research gaps	Corresponding research objectives
Research gap item 1 (main): inadequate  existing empirical studies as well as usable theories to find out and analyze the crisis accommodation of the homeless generation X in Shamshuipo	Research objective 1 (main): to conduct empirical research and develop more usable theories on the crisis accommodation of the homeless generation X in Shamshuipo.
Research gap item 2 (main): inadequate  existing empirical studies as well as usable theories to find out and analyze the short-term crisis of the homeless generation X in Shamshuipo	Research objective 2 (main): to conduct empirical research and develop more usable theories on the short-term crisis of the homeless generation X in Shamshuipo
Research gap item 3 (minor): inadequate existing empirical studies as well as usable theories to find out and analyze the homelessness risk of the homeless generation X in Shamshuipo	Research objective 3 (minor): to conduct empirical research and develop more usable theories on the homelessness risk of the homeless generation X in Shamshuipo

Note: the core-focus-domain comprises the two main research objectives of 1 and 2.

Deliverable 3: theoretical framework-A

Note: the illustrative example of theoretical framework makes use of the diagram obtained via Google search (source). In actual practice, a customized theoretical framework should be the output of the idea synthesis effort from the research project student.

Deliverable 4: theoretical framework-B

Research method 1: Interview research

Research method 2: Observational research

Research method 3: Desk research

Research method 4: Questionnaire survey
