Question - For this assignment, perform a search for resources in your chosen topic area related to psychology.

Be sure to start at the "Databases" or "Find an Article" page in the Library for scholarly articles and the "Find a Book" page for a book.

Locate five peer-reviewed journal articles, one book, and one scholarly resource (website or other resource).

Begin by creating a table (a general example has been provided below) and list the resources you find. You can use a Word table and then include it with the write-up described below in order to submit one document to complete this assignment.

Example: Aggressive Behavior

Article Citation/Book Chapter/Scholarly Resource (website)

Database/Website

Keywords

Search Limiter

Issues Improvements in Database/Website Searching Skills

Coyne, S. M. (2016). Effects of viewing relational aggression on television on aggressive behavior in adolescents: A three-year longitudinal study. Developmental Psychology, 52(2), 284-295. doi:10.1037/dev0000068

EBSCOhost - contains various source types, allows one to save searches in a folder, etc.

Aggressive behavior

Scholarly/Peer Reviewed

Date range 2000-2016

Keywords were too broad and produced too many results. Need to work on refining searching.

The columns of the chart are as follows:

  • Column 1 - Identify the resource fully and the type of resource (article, book, other) you discovered in the library.
  • Column 2 - Provide the name of the database you used and briefly describe the subject content, resource types, etc.
  • Column 3 - List the keywords you used in your search.
  • Column 4 - List any search limiters such as full text, date, peer-reviewed, etc., that you used.
  • Column 5 - Provide a note about issues that arose and how you can improve your searching skills.

Then, conclude your assignment by selecting one of the following and writing a brief paper explaining which one you chose and the outcome of your effort:

  • Identify a researcher doing research in your area and questions you would ask them about their research based on what you've read of their work. The primary author's contact information is often at the bottom of the first page of an article. Researchers love to talk about their research and answer questions. You are not required to actually contact the researcher, but prepare the questions as though you might.
  • Identify and setup a tool for managing the resources you collect from our Library or elsewhere. This might be OneNote, RefWorks, or a database you develop for yourself in MS Access, MS Excel, or a similar tool (e.g., setting up folders on Dropbox). Explain why you chose what you chose and briefly how you set it up and plan to use it in conjunction with your use of scholarly sources.
  • Reach out with a question to the NCU Librarian. Explain your question and the answer you received and how that facilitated your use of the NCU Libray.

Total Length: 2-3 pages (the chart-an MS Word Table-on one page, and a 1-2 page summary of your experience with one of the three options), not including title page.
