How can I find scholarly, peer-reviewed articles?

Answer

Looking for peer-reviewed articles (sometimes called academic or scholarly)? Try searching for keywords related to your topic in OneSearch or a library database. You can combine keywords with connectors, and use quotation marks to keep terms together as a phrase. 

If you're in OneSearch, you can filter your results and select Peer-reviewed/scholarly

Search results in CSUDH Library OneSearch for k-pop and globalization with refine my results panel and peer-reviewed/scholarly filter highlighted.

 

Some databases may not have an exact filter for peer-review but you can use a filter for the type of source where peer-reviewed articles are found such as, Academic Journals.

Search results in PsycINFO for "color perception" and mood with Refine Results panel and Source Type Academic Journals filter highlighted.
