Could the GA help with deduplication of search results and finding full text articles when you're at that stage?

Subject: GA utilization in scoping or SR?

Hi, all

 

Has anyone utilized the help of a graduate assistant in conducting a scoping review or systematic review? If so, what roles or tasks have they successfully employed?

 

I ask because I had tried being a guide on the side for a GA on a scoping review (which was more work than it was worth) and now I'm jumping midstream into a systematic review that has been floundering for a year where the GA did a phenomenal amount of work that wasn't useful. Now am being asked to utilize this same GA in my search strategy work and am having difficulty identify something that would be a productive use of his and my time.

 

Any comments/thoughts welcome!

 

Best,

Anita
