Academic journal articles are the backbone of scholarly research in psychology. They are written by and for academics and are published by universities or scholarly associations. Importantly, most are peer-reviewed, which means that articles are reviewed by a panel of experts in the field of study before they appear in the journal. The best way to find these articles is to search in subject-specific databases, which collect and organize research from a particular field of study. Below you'll find a list of some of the most useful databases and journal titles in the field.
