I don’t see the items to drag — could you paste the list of items you need sorted?
Meanwhile, here’s quick guidance so you can sort them yourself:
Things that narrow an inquiry
- Add specific qualifiers (age, location, date range, outcome)
- Add more keywords combined with AND or use exact-phrase quotes
- Specify study/design (e.g., randomized trial) or population subgroup
- Exclude terms (NOT)
- Apply filters/limits (language, peer‑reviewed, date)
Things that broaden an inquiry
- Use synonyms or related terms joined with OR
- Remove filters/limits (wider date range, all languages)
- Use truncation/wildcards to capture variants (e.g., child* for child/children)
- Search more databases or sources
- Change a narrow question into a more open or general one
If you paste the exact items, I’ll place each under “Narrows” or “Broadens.”
