In this step, theresearcher focuses on developing brief understanding over research tittle in order to makeprocess smooth and systematic. Further, in this, individual outlined significance of chosen topicand motive like the research on mental disability to analyse significant relationship between twodisorders. Chapter 2 Literature review: It is the second step of dissertation which is based on secondaryinformation on research topic. In this, the scholar focuses on collecting reviews of different2
