Concept boxes are a way to break your research question into individual search concepts.
1. Write out the question you would like to answer in your literature search.
2. Underline the main terms/concepts in the statements you wrote for steps 1 and 2.
3. Create a concept box by listing each unique topic in a separate row and related terms/synonyms in the adjacent column.
