In this workshop, Eliza Grames will explain how the R package litsearchR can be used for quick, objective, reproducible development of search strategies in systematic reviews. The package uses text-mining and keyword co-occurrence networks to identify important terms to include in a search strategy.
Please note that this workshop started at 16:00.

Materials
In this compressed folder (ZIP file) are the script and data that contain a full example of using litsearchr from start to finish, with an example on de-escalation training effectiveness. Eliza will run through the full thing including the steps outside of R (e.g. exporting the search results).
