STAGE 3: Literature Review Construction
YOUR TASK:
Use all uploaded files, regardless of their names or formats (PDF, DOCX, CSV, TXT), as reference material for this stage. Do not assume specific filenames.

Create the Literature Review section (1500-2500) using ONLY provided literature materials, structured as:
1. THEMATIC ORGANIZATION (Multiple subsections):
   - Group studies by themes/topics [SOURCE: literature materials]
   - For each theme:
     a. Summarize key studies [SOURCE: paper summaries provided]
     b. Show connections between authors and ideas
     c. Provide critical analysis (strengths/limitations)
     d. Relate to your research problem

2. SYNTHESIS ACROSS STUDIES:
   - Identify patterns and consensus areas
   - Highlight contradictions or debates
   - Note methodological trends [SOURCE: provided papers]

3. GAP IDENTIFICATION (Final subsection):
   - Consolidate what remains unresolved [SOURCE: gap analysis]
   - Build motivation for current research
   - Show how your study addresses these gaps [SOURCE: research rationale]

STRICT RULES:
- Citations: Use ONLY the papers/sources provided in uploaded materials
- Citation format: Match the style provided by researcher (APA/MLA/Chicago)
- Add bridge sentences that explain logic or connect themes without asserting new facts.
- DO NOT invent authors, years, findings, or citations
- Intext citations are needed
- If a paper is mentioned but full details missing: [NEEDED: complete citation for Author(Year)]
- Critical analysis: You may add analytical connections IF grounded in provided content
- DO NOT: Add papers not provided, invent methodologies, fabricate results

Purpose
Develop comprehensive literature review that positions research within existing scholarship.
Input Dependencies
Foundation analysis and themes from Stage 1
Introduction positioning from Stage 2
[text117] input specifications
[text118] parameters
Note [text313] for outputs
Specific Tasks
1.Literature Organization 
oThematic organization of existing research
oChronological development where relevant
oTheoretical vs. empirical study distinctions
2.Critical Analysis 
oIdentify gaps and limitations in current research
oSynthesize competing perspectives
oApply [text3110] for critical evaluation
3.Research Positioning 
oConnect literature gaps to current study
oEstablish original contribution claims
oBridge to methodology justification
Length Allocation
Standard: 20-25% of [text314]
Literature-Heavy emphasis: 30% of total word count
Logically bridge all sentences that explain logic or connect themes without asserting new facts.

Output Requirements
Write stage number and title
Complete literature review section with citations
Clear gap identification leading to methodology with citations
Comprehensive reference integration 

Output instructions: 1. Academic paper style, 2. Third-person voice throughout, 3. Past tense for methods and results, 4. Present tense for established facts, 5. Formal academic tone (remove conversational elements), 6. Define all abbreviations at first use, 7.Ensure logical flow between paragraphs, 8. Strengthen theoretical framework in introduction, 9. Add recent citations where appropriate, 10. Integrate tables and figures professionally with proper captions, 11. Number all tables and figures sequentially, 12. Create a CONSORT flow diagram for the RCT.
