Linguistics / Sociolinguistic
English term or phrase: an extensive general literature
Context: In addition to an extensive general literature (mainly within psychology) dealing with the design, scoring and interpretation of tests, there is a somewhat scattered literature produced by linguists which discusses in some detail the linguistic adequacy of language tests.

Agradecería mucho si pudiese ayudarme a traducir la siguiente frase: "an extensive general literature" en el contexto que dejé. Muchísimas gracias

una amplia bibliografía general
Explanation:
En este contexto "literature" quiere decir lo que se ha publicado sobre un tema determinado. Creo que el término más adecuado es "bibliografía":

"Existe hoy una amplia bibliografía general, difícilmente abarcable, en torno al tema genérico de la violencia en las relaciones humanas"
