Our searches will update those of our earlier review13. We will search three bibliographic databases (Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science), and a search engine (Google Scholar) to find citations of papers that developed or expounded the main constructs of NPT3–8,22; papers that developed NPT related methods or tools9–11; and citations of the NPT web-enabled online toolkit23. The same search string will be used across all searches: “Normali* Process Model” OR “Normali* Process Theory” OR “general theory of implement*” OR “general model of implement*” OR “NPT Toolkit” OR “www.normalizationprocess.org”. Preliminary searches were completed from 13th December to 22nd December 2021 and the research team are in the process of finalising the included studies.
