해외저널 INTRODUCTION

The introduction is different from the literature review. While it is important to provide background knowledge by referencing relevant literature, only the key studies essential for understanding the research and hypotheses should be cited. Additionally, the introduction should clearly present the direction of the study. For example, it should emphasize the fact that there is still limited research in the field and explain why the study is worth conducting. Based on previous research findings, the study’s direction should be articulated. It must demonstrate that a thorough review of prior literature has been conducted and that the research direction has been established accordingly. Furthermore, the introduction should explain the significance and value of the study. It should briefly outline the research objectives, hypotheses, and the value of the study’s newly discovered findings.
