Search tips

Finding academic journal articles for you study

Academic journals (also called scholarly, peer-reviewed or referred journals) are a useful source of articles written by people who are experts on the topic. Most articles go through a 'peer-review' process to ensure the quality of the article before it is published.

You can find academic journal articles by using MultiSearch, search our Psychology databases or Google Scholar.

Looking for a specific article?  
If you already have the citation for the article you can find the full text by using either:

  • Publications link using the title of the journal in your search OR
  • Multisearch on the Library homepage using the title of the article
     

If the Library doesn't provide access to the journal, you can request a copy through the Interloan service.
