# Scoping Review Guide
Conduct scoping reviews to map the breadth and nature of research evidence on a topic, using the Arksey & O'Malley framework and JBI methodology with PRISMA-ScR reporting.
## Scoping Review vs. Systematic Review
| Feature | Scoping Review | Systematic Review |
|---------|---------------|-------------------|
| **Purpose** | Map the evidence landscape | Answer a specific clinical/research question |
| **Question** | Broad, exploratory | Focused, narrow |
| **Inclusion criteria** | Broadly defined, may evolve | Strictly predefined |
| **Quality assessment** | Optional (not always done) | Required (risk of bias) |
| **Synthesis** | Descriptive/thematic mapping | Quantitative (meta-analysis) or narrative |
| **Protocol registration** | Recommended (OSF) | Required (PROSPERO) |
