According to the PS504, Unit 2 assignment introduction:
Many of the research questions in psychology focus on understanding, explaining, and predicting behavior 
 
Therefore, searching for something related to psychology and behavior may be a useful strategy. 
For example, begin your search on the Library homepage with the keywords:
 
psychology behavioral analysis "scientific method"
 
Be sure to use the quotation marks as shown; they tell the database to look for the words close together.
Also, select the Peer Reviewed box (below the large search box) to limit search results to peer reviewed sources.
 
Other suggested searches include:
  • psychology "behavior analysis"
  • psychology "behavioral research"
 
There are also various reference books in the Library database Gale eBooks linked in the Popular Databases box on the lower right side of the Library homepage, or accessed from the All Databases A-Z link.
Though not peer reviewed, the encyclopedia/dictionary entries could still be helpful.
