Easily Expanding Your Research

Once you find one article, you can usually find more based on these few tips:

  1. Check the article's references. Search those new article titles in OneSearch to find them. 
  2. Check to see if the article has been cited by any other published journal articles. Each database platform lists them differently, but look for a number and the words such as citations or times cited. 
  3. Use your exact search in a different database. For example, if you are searching Sociological Abstracts, try your search in the Social Sciences Citation Index.
