Introduction

This guide was put together with the goal of helping students in Dr. Jennifer Austin's Fall 2022 Language Acquisition course get started with finding peer-reviewed journal articles for their final project.  It is intended to complement and supplement the November 11, 2021 library research instruction session.

By no means is this an exhaustive guide to doing research, so if you have any questions related to psychology literature research, please contact Naomi Gold at dana_science@libraries.rutgers.edu.  For general library-related questions, Ask-A-Librarian.
