The flowchart illustrates the methodological steps for conducting research. The process begins with the development of a general research study, which involves acquiring a general understanding of the topic and defining search terms. This leads to conducting the final research study, where the final sample of relevant articles is selected. Next, a descriptive analysis is conducted to collect data related to the general characteristics of the articles. Following this, a content analysis is performed to derive results related to the content covered in the articles. The final step is the development of a synthesis table, which involves constructing a table with the main results obtained. The flowchart is divided into five main steps: exploratory research, implementation of the PRISMA methodology, descriptive analysis, content analysis, and synthesis table.Methodological steps for conducting the research.
