How to search:

In EBSCOhost databases, clicking the "Peer Reviewed" box will limit your search to "scholarly" or "academic" articles.
Type a few keywords in the search box. Choose the words or phrases that best represent your research question or topic.
Use the limiter options to narrow down your results list (limit the date range, source type, etc.).

Finding the article itself (an abstract is a summary, not a source!):

Many articles are in full text; PDF format is best.
In EBSCOhost, the "Access Options" and "Access Now" buttons will link you to the full text.
If we do not have full-text access to an article you need, check our Publication Finder (the "Browse Journal Titles" tab on the library website) to see if we subscribe in print or a different database. If we don't have a subscription, you may request the article through interlibrary loan.
