Searching databases for journal articles is a bit more challenging than using tools such as Google. The good news is that you have a lot more control over how you design the search. This also means you should get better, more targeted results.
The above search strategy in the PsycINFO database will look like this. Note that I changed "Select a Field" to "SU Subjects" for so only the index terms for this article are searched.
Two other elements were added to the following search. The search was limited to peer reviewed articles and empirical studies (see Methodology) only.
This search retrieved 239 citations.
NOTE: If you are not sure which terms to use, the PsycINFO Thesaurus is extremely helpful. It is accessible on the blue menu bar at the top of the page.
