Psychology: Research Methods (PSY33-214)|

If you have an article citation and want to find that specific article, you can find it several ways.

• Worldcat@SU
  • Search for the article title.  It is often useful to put quotes around the article title to find the exact title you want.
    • Example:  ti:  "Looking for Ms. Right: Allocating Attention to Facilitate Mate Choice Decisions."

• Google Scholar
  •  Use the article title.  Again, it is often useful to put quotes around the article title to find the exact title you want.  If you find articles that are not freely available,  search the Worldcat@SU  to see if we have the article or the Online Periodical, Journal, & Newspaper Links on the library's homepage.

• Worldcat@SU for Selected Book Chapters in PsycINFO  ​ Chapters from authored and edited books will be displayed with a Book icon in the database.  Books are selected if they are scholarly,  professional, or researched-based, English language,  and relevant to psychology.  Search the Worldcat@SU to see if we have the book.  If not, request the item from GET IT!: Interlibrary Loan to obtain the book or book chapter.
  • Example:  ti: "Subjective Aspects of Beauty"  (PsycINFO Book Chapter)  IN Beauty and Body Dysmorphic: A Clinician's Guide  (book).

• Open Access from PsycINFO -  An  Icon logo will appear that makes it clear if an article or journal is available in open access.

Sometimes you already have a citation (maybe you found it on Google Scholar or saw it linked through another source), but want to find the article. Everything you need to locate your article is already found in the citation.  Example:  The Living Experience of Difficulty of Telling the Truth. A Parse Method Study.
