  • Use caps for AND OR NOT to combine search terms. 
  • Use quotes to keep two or more words together as a phrase.
  • The Resource Type filters will limit to a specific type of source.
  • You must sign in to access online materials or use the Request function.

In-depth Searching? Looking for more? Use databases.

Use a database that focuses on psychology resources. Access the full list of psychology-specific database options from the Library's A-Z database list. Any database with a blue lock icon blue locked padlockrequires access to a campus connection (protected network or VPN).

Accessing Full Text

The full text of an article may be provided using various access points. Look for:

  • An HTML link
  • PDF link
  • Link to Get it at UC

Get it at UC   The Get it at UC link will provide you with options for accessing the full text of the article from within UC Library Search. If there are no online access links or the print is unavailable from the Library, you need to request the item.
