  1. 1有系統的、有條理的；（貶義用法時）系統性的、有計畫的。台灣學術中文常見「系統性回顧」（systematic review）、「系統性誤差」（systematic error）。

    If something is systematic, it is done in an organised, step-by-step way, following a plan, with nothing skipped. A systematic search means you look at every room in order rather than wandering about; a systematic study means the researchers followed a fixed method all the way through. It suggests care, thoroughness and method, and in or science it is praise. Here is the part dictionaries often leave out. 'Systematic' also has a colder use, where it describes something bad that is done in an organised way over a long time and on purpose — systematic abuse, systematic corruption, the systematic destruction of a city. The organisation is exactly what makes it : it was not an accident, someone planned it. So the word itself is neutral; the feeling comes from what follows it. There is a second, narrower meaning in science: 'systematic' can mean 'to do with a system of classification' — systematic is the study of how plants are grouped. And in measurement, a 'systematic error' is an error that repeats in the same direction every time because of a fault in the method, as opposed to a random error.

From the word’s history

From Late Latin systēmaticus, from Koine Greek συστηματικός; system + -atic.

借自晚期拉丁文 systēmaticus；即 system 加 -atic。

Wiktionary

組成By surface analysis, system + -atic, the ending that makes an adjective (as in 'problem → problematic', 'drama → dramatic'). Borrowed from Late Latin systematicus, from Greek systematikos, from systema meaning 'a whole put together out of parts' plus the adjective ending -ikos.
