Scholarly or Popular?- Answer
If you chose ARTICLE 2 as scholarly, you would
be right. How did you know? In the acknowledgements section near the
end of the article, you can see information about the authors
who are experts in their field. There is also a REFERENCE LIST at the end of the article showing
where the authors got their information.
The shortcut? Using the located in the search box. Click
in the box to peer-reviewed publications and only peer reviewed
articles will be retrieved.
In these publications, all articles are reviewed by experts in the
field before the article is published. PERIODICALS
which use referees are considered scholarly. Therefore, articles retrieved
when using this limit should be scholarly.
