Expert Tips: Evaluating Scholarly Sources Like a Pro

Welcome back to the Literature Review Workflow Series! In this video, Matthew Courtney focuses on one of the most essential steps in the literature review process: evaluating the quality of your sources. Selecting credible, relevant, and academically rigorous sources is critical to building a strong foundation for your research, and Matthew shows you how to ensure your sources meet these standards. He begins by discussing three key criteria for evaluating sources. Relevance ensures each source directly contributes to your research objectives, helping to avoid “question drift.” Credibility considers the author’s background, publication source, and diversity of perspectives, ensuring a balanced and trustworthy collection of voices. Finally, Academic Rigor looks at the study’s methodology, transparency, and evidence quality, helping you select sources that are methodologically sound and reliable. To illustrate these criteria in action, Matthew evaluates one of his own publications, examining how to apply relevance, credibility, and rigor to determine a source’s value. This video provides practical steps for carefully selecting research articles that will enhance the quality and depth of your literature review.
