  Ett osjälvständigt refererande skrivsätt används.
  En viss källkritik kan uppfattas.
  Den teoretiska bakgrunden och utgångspunkten är uppbyggd av företrädesvis relevant litteratur men förblir mycket allmänt och/eller kortfattat beskriven. Källorna är få, endast delvis relevanta och utgör en svag teoretisk ram för arbetet.
