How to start Title and abstract screening

When you click on the eye icon or “My tasks” button, you will be redirected to the My Task board. Here you can access your current tasks in the Title and abstract screening stage (as well as other stages).

Please note, that prior to the distribution, there will be no records available in the My Task section.

Example project dashboard (from the researcher's perspective) with two ways of entering screening highlighted - the 'My Tasks' section in the centre and the eye icon in the sidebar on the left.

Your "My Task" panel will display the following information:

How many references you need to screen or extract in particular stage ('To screen' tab)
How many references have been completed at each stage ('Completed' tab)
How many conflicts need to be resolved ('Conflicts' tab)

To start Title and abstract screening, select the 'To screen' tab in the Title and Abstract screening section.

Tip: On the right hand side you can follow the progress of your team members at each stage of the systematic review:
•  a full blue dot means that the reviewer has completed their work, 
•  an empty dot means that the reviewer is working on given task, 
•  a grey dot means that the reviewer has not yet started their screening,
•  no dot means that the team member has no references assigned (via distribution process)
