[...]the data was collected only from journals, not including any textbooks, newspaper articles, PhD thesis, conference papers, doctoral and master dissertations and unpublished articles with relation to the topic. [...]in future studies, data can be collected from all such sources too, more studies can be conducted and the obtained results can be compared with the results of this study.
