Evidence Synthesis

Screening Tools

Once you've completed the searching step of your evidence synthesis project, it's time to move on to screening. There are many different tools to help you with the screening process. FSU students and employees have unlimited access to Covidence. This can be found on the FSU Libraries A-Z databases page under C. We highly recommend you use this if you are starting your own review and anticipate completing it while studying or employed at FSU. As long as you are the owner of the review, you can invite people from other institutions to participate, and they will have access to all the same features in that particular review as you do.

You may encounter a different screening tool if someone from another institution adds you to their review. Here is a short list of some other popular screening tools. Each should have their own training resources and documentation.
