Figure 1.
The image presents a flowchart illustrating a structured research process divided into three main sections: Search, Appraisal, and Synthesis and Analysis. The Search section outlines steps including drafting a theoretical framework, conducting an academic database search with conditions for data selection, such as the refinement of search syntax and alignment screening. The Appraisal section details a keyword filtering process involving clustering, identification of canonical keywords, and evaluation of participative practices, leading to the generation of records based on relevance. Finally, the Synthesis and Analysis section describes the design and application of a codebook, highlighting key activities such as categorization of technologies and extraction of methodological insights, culminating in a coded report. The chart is interconnected with arrows indicating the flow of the process and key decision points throughout each stage.Scoping review workflow (SALSA): bibliometric mapping in SciMAT (Search–Appraisal) and four-dimension content analysis (Synthesis–Analysis). Record flow after deduplication: 3,270 → 479 (bibliometric filter) → 80 (≥8 / 16 canonical keywords) → 40 (title/abstract screen) → 22 analyzable practices (full-text appraisal)
