Quality assessment of the 119 selected papers using a nine-question instrument. The review reports "nearly 50% of the primary studies did not provide enough information about the models used to create the evaluation method" (QA3 coverage was negative).

"This is because most of the primary studies did not provide the required information about the set of questions of the evaluation method and nearly 50% of the primary studies did not provide enough information about the models used to create the evaluation method."
