PSYC405 Advanced Research Methods

To find articles with "social psychology" as a subject, search for social psychology and limit your search to "Classification- CL" in the drop-down box. 

Then select the box to limit to Peer Reviewed. This removes books and dissertations from the search results. 

From the results page, you can limit further by date, age group, population, and methodology (e.g. Empirical Study). 

To narrow down your results further, explore the Subject limiter for other terms to add, or try adding in your own terms in the search box. Use the word AND to search for both the social psychology classification and your search term. 

When you find an article you're interested in, look for an option to download the full text, or use the Get It! button to access the full text through another database or borrow it for free through interlibrary loan. Don't forget to also use the Cite button to get the full citation for the article.
