The process visual outlines a systematic five-step methodology for reviewing literature on consumer behaviour regarding remanufactured products. Step 1 defines the search strategy using terms like consumer behaviour and remanufacture, applied to sources including Scopus and ScienceDirect. Step 2 screens 925 results by title and abstract, then Step 3 narrows them further by reviewing full texts. Step 4 involves coding and categorising, and Step 5 synthesises the findings into a framework. Criteria exclude duplicates, non-consumer-focused works, inaccessible texts, and others, reducing the total to 62 papers. Coding includes metadata, theory, methodology, outcome, and key findings.An overview of the key steps in the integrative literature review process
