Question

Q: How do I find empirical articles in PsycINFO?

Answer

Most databases will provide you with some options for limiting your results. Some common limiters include filtering results by whether they have been peer-reviewed, contain the full text, and/or were published within a specified Date Range.

PsychINFO provides a limiter to filter your results only to Empirical Research. You can find PsychINFO through the "Find a Database" link on the Library Homepage.
