  3. Click “Psychology”
  4. Click "PsycINFO"

 

  1. In the “Subject” box, put the subject you are looking for (e.g. hypnosis). You may change the other box to subject and add another subject (e.g. pain).  Select the "All these words (AND)" from the "Search for" box below the subject box and you will find all journal articles containing "hypnosis and pain"
  2. Click “Human”  and “English” for the language
  3. Publication type: Click down arrow for “Journal article”   IMPORTANT
  4. Click “Search”

 You will get a list of journals containing your subject (hopefully).  However, U.C. libraries may not have the journal.  How can you find out? 

  1. Click "availability" link in the right margin.  It will tell you where the journal is located within the state of Ohio.
  2. If "Full-Text" appears above the "availability" link, it is very likely that you can print the article directly from the internet.

If a U.C. library has it (such as Langsam on the West Campus or Health Sciences on the East Campus), it will  give you a number (e.g. BF .089);  If U.C. doesn’t have it, you will get the message “(Title of journal” should appear here”

11. Take the number to the desk and ask where the journal is located.

12. Copy the article(s) you need.
