    Peer Reviewed Research

    Plain and simple as the title states, where do you get your Peer Reviewed Research from, BG?

    Your school should have subscriptions to various databases that contain peer reviewed research.

    For me: School website > Library's page > databases > pick one > search with "peer reviewed" option checked.

    If you speak to a librarian at your university they can show you how your school does it and what databases you have subscriptions to.

    However, this is assuming you are a student and not looking for scholarly journals without being a student.

    Usually ebscohost. Like posted above, your school should have access to this stuff.

EBSCOhost is what I usually use, but since I am a history major I generally delve into their "political science/history" database that my school has access to. One of the things you need to do when picking a database through your school is see which subjects the certain databases cover, because often times a single database company will have one for each subject. This will make your search a lot easier as well.

    ScienceDirect, Web of Knowledge, SportsDiscus, PsycINFO and CINAHL are the ones i use for psychology, sports, medicine, health and nutrition papers. ScienceDirect will also have a lot of physics, biology, cehmistry, those kinds of sciences in there as well.

    www.jstor.org is also an option, but I think Google Scholar catches just about everything on there. jstor is good though if you're searching for something that crosses multiple disciplines. It's been a major help in avoiding econ articles while I've been working on my prospectus recently >.>
