Psychology 2420 Social Psychology

This page is designed to serve the assignment needs for Psychology 2420, Social Psychology, as of Winter 2018

Articles

Use the "Articles" tab on the home page, and put TI followed by your topic concept (in quotation marks if it is a phrase)
for example  TI "cognitive dissonance" (use this link to run this search then change this phrase to your own topic)

Then narrow the search using all of the following limiters on the left side of the results:

  • Full Text
  • Date range - last year or two at most
  • Peer Reviewed

The sample link above applies all of these limiters for you. If you don't get any results, widen the date range.

Some additional search tips, from the Jan 16, 2018 class:

  • Use the * to handle variant endings, like biolog* and aggressi*
  • Use the N# operator to keep two words close without being an exact phrase,
    like biolog* N5 aggressi*
  • If you have two words that mean the same for your purpose, separate them with OR,
    like   brain OR neur*
    Be sure to put this in one of the AND lines by itself, not mixed with your other search words
  • If the TI (title) results in too few results, try SU (subject tag), or no field restriction at all
