  3. Getting to PsycINFO Database

  4. Simple Search - Truncation * in PsycINFO means “retrieve all words that start with these letters, no matter how they end.” So the above search should retrieve any record containing confidential, confidentially or confidentiality. Like most databases, PsycINFO requires at least 1 character before the truncation symbol (* in PsycINFO.) Click Search to run the search.

  5. Your turn • Truncate the word rehabilitation to catch all varieties—singular and plural noun, adjective, verb in present and past tenses.

  6. Proximity searching • Symbol between two words tells computer to search for the two words when they appear within some number of words of each other. w# in PsycINFO means the words must be in the order given. The above search should retrieve UF but not USF (right order but 2 intervening words) or FSU (only 1 intervening word but wrong order.)

  7. Simple Search - Proximity n# in PsycINFO allows the given words to appear in any order: rehabilitation counseling counseling in rehabilitation counseling about rehabilitation counseling for rehabilitation Note that rehabilitation n1 counselors could include rehabilitation of counselors

  8. Active page Limit # of retrievals Currently inactive page

  9. Your turn • Truncate to get ethic, ethics, ethical, ethically • Use a proximity operator on rehabilitation counseling • Limit to the last 5 years of publication and English • Limit to peer-reviewed journal articles

  14. More on results display • Re-sort the results list by a different criterion (default is “most recently-added to database tops the list”) • Add all results on page to Folder • Have database suggest a subject heading to capture all related records

  15. Translation, please List of sources written before and used in writing this article Number of articles/books/book chapters in this database that cited this article ! You can get this full-text online by clicking right here!!! Let’s see what the Cited References link looks like…..

  16. Add to your Folder • Link to full-text OR • Follow these leads to still more sources on topic!

  17. But wait! There’s more! Click on the Citing Articles tab to see who cited the original article in subsequent work* *(even if it’s not an article, like the example above) What IS the format of the original that is represented by this citation?

  18. Subject heading? • Standardized term for a concept • Example: elderly— • Aged • Old • Seniors (but this could also denote year in college or high school) • Standardized form of a concept • Example: rehabilitation — • Rehabilitate (also rehabilitates and rehabilitated) • Rehabilitative • Rehab • Rehabilitation

  19. Where are these subject headings? Along the left side of your Results List (so you just click to add them to your existing search)… …and on the Thesaurus page. To get there: 1. Click the Suggest Subject Terms checkbox under the search boxes. 2. Then click the Search button.

  20. How to start at Thesaurus Default Term Begins With takes you to alphabetic list of subject headings. Change radio button to the more useful Relevancy Ranked. Click Browse. As of 8-27-06, PsycINFO contained 923 citations in which RC was a topic. RC was a major topic in just 804 of those.

  21. Explode • Exploding gives you more results by including all the more specific terms associated with your search term. • To see which terms the computer will search if you explode, click the hyperlinked subject heading. • Click the box under Explode to include these more specific terms in your search.

  22. Exploding Subject Heading “Rehabilitation” All these terms will also be searched.

  23. Simple subject heading search To search a single subject heading: • Click the Major and/or Explode and/or just the plain left-side checkbox . • Then click the Search button near the top of the page.

  24. Setting up a multiple-subject heading search Follow the steps for the single subject heading search EXCEPT • Check Major Conceptonly for the most important of the concepts you’re choosing subject headings for or the one most likely to retrieve large numbers of citations. • Click the ADD button instead of the Search button. The pull-down beside Add can stay at the default OR for your first term.

  25. Adding more terms to a multi-subject heading search With the first term into the top search box as on the previous slide: • Type 2nd term in the Browse box and choose the appropriate checkbox (Major/Explode or left-side) • Change pull-down beside Add button to and if you want each citation to include BOTH terms Finally, click Add, then Search

  26. Your turn Use the Thesaurus to find : • an edited book • published in or after 2004 • That mostly focuses on professional competence in cross-cultural counseling.

  27. Easier: History • Search two topics separately • Click the Search History/Alerts tab • Click Clear at the top of the page • Click checkboxes beside searches whose results you want to combine • Set the pull-down to the correct combining word (OR retrieves either heading; AND requires both headings.) • Click Add, then Search

  28. Your turn • Keyword search on confidentiality. • Search on online therapy, requiring it to be a major topic • Combine the results of these two searches • Limit to the last 4 years

  29. Working with saved citations • Click on Folder has items • Click on Print, Email or Save. • Do NOT over-estimate your email capacity. Send just the citation list at first, THEN try sending PDFs of the full articles, just a few at a time or you may have wasted your time searching & selecting.
