Step two involves screening 8,828 eligible articles, where 4,103 are excluded for not meeting language, focus, or empirical criteria, retaining 4,725 articles. Step three adds 81 articles from cross-referenced sources, bringing the total to 4,806. Step four excludes 4,668 non-relevant studies, resulting in 138 retained articles.
