Library Resources for Nursing 310

PsycInfo Guide to articles published in psychology journals 1872 - present.

Search using EBSCOhost, the same software as you use to search CINAHL. The software will work the same, but your results will be different because you are searching psychology literature.

1. Type a search: chinese medicine AND depression
2. Open a result. The hyperlinked subject headings lead to other articles on this topic.

If there is no PDF or HTML full text link attached to the record, then use the Check for Full Text link to search Journal Finder for the journal.

Practice: Search for alternative medicine and addiction

If you get too many results, use the sidebar links to narrow your subject.

If you don't get enough results

• Use the Thesaurus (top bar) to look for and "explode" subject headings for your topic.
• Consider a broader topic. For instance, instead of searching for visual hallucinations and qigong, search for psychosis and Chinese medicine.

Some journals that you may encounter:

• Culture, Medicine and Psychiatry
• Transcultural Psychiatry
• International Journal of Social Psychiatry
• Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine
