Journals
Journal articles are written by scholars in an academic or professional
field. They publish research studies and analyses or reviews of research.
An editorial board of experts reviews articles to decide whether they
should be published. The research process takes quite a bit of time.
Therefore scholarly journals are not likely to contain brand new research
or analysis of a recent event.
Use a Journal to find
- information about scholarly topics, like those you study at Lesley
- articles reporting the results of original research
- bibliographies that point to other relevant research
- reviews of scholarly books
Examples
- Journal of Special Education
- Cognitive Psychology
- New England Journal of Medicine
- Annual Review of Sociology
