ibkid Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Hi, im currently writing the psychology IA, and all of the academic journals, magazines, articles, etc... need mandatory subscription or some kind of membership to their site that involve a fee or some sort. Anyways, i was wondering if there are any good online databases that have many journals, etc.. that are free or only require a simple register to their site?? Thanks Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Lc~ Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 here are all the psychology databases I found that don't require Athens username and password. don't worry didn't do me much trouble I just looked at the databases from my Uni's electronic library [url="http://highwire.stanford.edu/"]http://highwire.stanford.edu/[/url] [url="http://cogprints.org/"]http://cogprints.org/[/url] the 2nd one is a database, so I don't know if you can access it... try [url="http://www.psywww.com/index.html"]http://www.psywww.com/index.html[/url] [url="http://www.intute.ac.uk/socialsciences/"]http://www.intute.ac.uk/socialsciences/[/url] [url="http://www.psycline.org/"]http://www.psycline.org/[/url] the rest are all websites and they're all credible resources, because if they weren't my Uni wouldn't subscribe to them good luck Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Unfortunately it's unlikely you'll find much for free... That's why the IAs don't ask for much research, because they know it's pretty hard. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rue saint-denis Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 If you go to your local universities' library they should have access to databases such as PsychInfo, etc. They should also have printed journals, so go and enjoy. It's all free. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graeme Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 Just pretend you're not a stranger and voila! Problem solved. Or go to a public library. They often have journals there. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
