  • The study reviews 179 quantitative studies, revealing gaps like insufficient integration of race in analysis.
  • Analysis of methodological approaches highlights underutilization of mixed methods and local context considerations.
  • Future research must adopt theoretically grounded methodologies and better address spatial and social issues.
