other, later papers that cite it. No full text.
Academic
Search Premier (1984-present, full text no further back than 1990).
Includes some scholarly articles of interest to Communication Sciences
& Disorders researchers. Start your search here and find what scholarly,
full text articles you can, and then continue your search in one or more
of the other indexes listed. Covers the social sciences, humanities, general
science, education and multicultural journals. Includes both scholarly
and popular articles. In the advanced search, you may limit your search
to "peer reviewed" articles, but each article retrieved should be judged
on its own merits as whether it is scholarly or not. (The handout Before
you Write a Research Paper, contains a chart which compares scholarly-or
peer reviewed-journals and popular magazines.) Approximately 50% of the
articles are full text.
Health and Psychosocial

(i.e., questionnaires, interview schedules, checklists, index measures,
coding schemes/manuals, rating scales, projective techniques, vignettes/scenarios,
tests) in the health fields, psychosocial sciences, organizational behavior,
and library and information science." The PS (Primary Source) code
indicates that the instrument was developed by the author(s) of the cited
article. A PS code is also used to indicate that an existing instrument
has been revised for the cited article. The SS (Secondary Source) code
indicates that the instrument was not developed by the author(s) of the
cited article. Some of the instruments referenced are only available
from commercial sources (some are available for purchase from BMDS, the
company that creates HaPI; in that case, order information will included
in the abstract), but others are published in cited articles. Limiting
a search by the PS code (see above) is the most efficient way to search
for the the instrument itself.
