00:00:00,170 --> 00:00:03,540
>> Hello. The purpose
of this screencast is

2
00:00:03,540 --> 00:00:06,525
to show you how
to use PsycINFO.

3
00:00:06,525 --> 00:00:09,680
So to access PsycINFO
at Miami University,

4
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:12,040
log into your
myMiami page.

5
00:00:12,040 --> 00:00:16,480
And you can click under
L to find libraries.

6
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,580
So I have mine saved here.

7
00:00:19,580 --> 00:00:22,310
And just click
on "Libraries".

8
00:00:22,310 --> 00:00:26,330
Then you want to go
to Databases A-Z.

9
00:00:26,420 --> 00:00:30,240
And PsycINFO is
actually published by

10
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:31,960
the American Psychological

11
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,380
Association or APA.

12
00:00:34,380 --> 00:00:36,120
So you actually
want to look under

13
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,910
A for APA PsycINFO

14
00:00:39,910 --> 00:00:41,760
and then just
scroll down through

15
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:47,460
your list until
you get to APA.

16
00:00:50,140 --> 00:00:53,140
You'll notice there's
a couple options here.

17
00:00:53,140 --> 00:00:56,280
There's a
PsychCRITIQUES and

18
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:57,600
then also the PsycINFO.

19
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,320
PsycINFO will help
you to access

20
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,460
the recent research in

21
00:01:02,460 --> 00:01:05,420
psychology and
psychological science.

22
00:01:05,420 --> 00:01:07,120
So if you click that link,

23
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,100
you'll be taken
to this database.

24
00:01:09,100 --> 00:01:10,620
You'll notice that
you are searching in

25
00:01:10,620 --> 00:01:12,565
the APA PsycINFO database.

26
00:01:12,565 --> 00:01:13,740
You could click this and

27
00:01:13,740 --> 00:01:15,000
choose some
other databases,

28
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,670
but stick to PsycINFO.

29
00:01:16,670 --> 00:01:19,520
Here in these lines, you
can choose keywords.

30
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,460
So let's say I'm
really interested

31
00:01:21,460 --> 00:01:23,200
in looking at
the effects of

32
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:29,240
social media use
and anxiety.

33
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,520
So I can just type in
those two keywords.

34
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,400
I could choose to
change up my keywords,

35
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:37,120
but here I want
to do social

36
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:38,300
media use and anxiety,

37
00:01:38,300 --> 00:01:40,720
and then I just
click "Search".

38
00:01:40,970 --> 00:01:45,908
Now, you'll notice that
I found 277 articles

39
00:01:45,908 --> 00:01:48,530
about social media
use and anxiety.

40
00:01:48,530 --> 00:01:50,150
You'll notice
that not all of

41
00:01:50,150 --> 00:01:51,290
them are journal articles.

42
00:01:51,290 --> 00:01:52,990
For example, the first
one that came up as

43
00:01:52,990 --> 00:01:55,050
a dissertation or thesis.

44
00:01:55,050 --> 00:02:00,350
You cannot use that
for this assignment.

45
00:02:00,350 --> 00:02:02,250
So in order to

46
00:02:02,250 --> 00:02:05,030
limit the type of
publications that you get,

47
00:02:05,030 --> 00:02:09,230
you can use these
limits on this side.

48
00:02:09,230 --> 00:02:10,810
For example, you
only want to

49
00:02:10,810 --> 00:02:11,750
use articles that you

50
00:02:11,750 --> 00:02:13,030
could get the full text.

51
00:02:13,030 --> 00:02:16,720
So check Full Text
Only as an option.

52
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,790
And also, you want

53
00:02:18,790 --> 00:02:20,690
to make sure that
you are only

54
00:02:20,690 --> 00:02:25,115
getting academic
journals, so check that.

55
00:02:25,115 --> 00:02:29,950
Now I have decreased my
search options to 77,

56
00:02:29,950 --> 00:02:31,550
but I know that I've found

57
00:02:31,550 --> 00:02:34,550
77 academic journal
articles that

58
00:02:34,550 --> 00:02:37,670
are related to social
media use and anxiety,

59
00:02:37,670 --> 00:02:40,280
and I can get full
text on all of them.

60
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,010
So I look at the title.

61
00:02:42,010 --> 00:02:44,250
I see what I find
interesting.

62
00:02:44,250 --> 00:02:45,810
Young adult depression
and anxiety are

63
00:02:45,810 --> 00:02:47,780
linked to social media use

64
00:02:47,780 --> 00:02:48,920
: Assessment
and treatment.

65
00:02:48,920 --> 00:02:50,675
Well, that sounds
really interesting.

66
00:02:50,675 --> 00:02:52,490
Looks pretty
current. I'm going

67
00:02:52,490 --> 00:02:54,430
to get the PDF full text.

68
00:02:54,430 --> 00:02:56,330
I can open it here.

69
00:02:56,330 --> 00:02:58,130
I can also download it

70
00:02:58,130 --> 00:03:00,590
from here and
read it offline.

71
00:03:00,590 --> 00:03:02,390
But then your task for

72
00:03:02,390 --> 00:03:05,270
the alternative
assignment would be to

73
00:03:05,270 --> 00:03:08,010
read this article
and then use

74
00:03:08,010 --> 00:03:09,290
it to answer the questions

75
00:03:09,290 --> 00:03:10,985
in the alternative
assignment.

76
00:03:10,985 --> 00:03:13,620
Finally, before I
leave this video,

77
00:03:13,620 --> 00:03:16,480
I want to give you one
more tip or trick for

78
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,300
how you can get the
citation in APA format.

79
00:03:20,300 --> 00:03:24,160
If we go back to the
original list of 77,

80
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,280
and I did that just
by clicking "Back",

81
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,120
if I click the article,

82
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,940
if I look over
here on this side,

83
00:03:30,940 --> 00:03:33,680
I have a bunch
of tool options.

84
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,620
For example, you could
add this article

85
00:03:35,620 --> 00:03:37,900
directly to your Google
Drive or a folder.

86
00:03:37,900 --> 00:03:39,735
You could print
the article.

87
00:03:39,735 --> 00:03:42,690
Here I want to show
you the Cite function.

88
00:03:42,690 --> 00:03:44,660
If you click the
"Cite" function,

89
00:03:44,660 --> 00:03:46,500
a lot of options show up

90
00:03:46,500 --> 00:03:48,585
here; citation format.

91
00:03:48,585 --> 00:03:50,530
Remember, we're learning

92
00:03:50,530 --> 00:03:53,010
APA format in this class,

93
00:03:53,010 --> 00:03:55,130
so we want to
stick to APA.

94
00:03:55,130 --> 00:03:56,750
APA format is

95
00:03:56,750 --> 00:03:58,750
the American Psychological
Association,

96
00:03:58,750 --> 00:04:00,230
again, happens to be

97
00:04:00,230 --> 00:04:02,090
in the seventh
edition currently.

98
00:04:02,090 --> 00:04:04,650
And so here is how you

99
00:04:04,650 --> 00:04:07,450
would cite that
in APA format.

100
00:04:07,450 --> 00:04:09,390
Notice we use just author

101
00:04:09,390 --> 00:04:11,690
last names with initials,

102
00:04:11,690 --> 00:04:13,380
the year of publication,

103
00:04:13,380 --> 00:04:16,430
the title of the
publication all lower case,

104
00:04:16,430 --> 00:04:18,350
the title of the source

105
00:04:18,350 --> 00:04:24,550
with every large word

106
00:04:24,550 --> 00:04:26,985
capitalized as it is here.

107
00:04:26,985 --> 00:04:29,000
The volume number,
issue number if there

108
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,360
is one page numbers,
and then the link.

109
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,280
And so you could just
copy-paste this into

110
00:04:35,280 --> 00:04:38,180
your response sheet

111
00:04:38,180 --> 00:04:39,540
for your research
portfolio,

112
00:04:39,540 --> 00:04:42,575
and that would be an
APA-style reference.

113
00:04:42,575 --> 00:04:44,760
That ends my screencast.

114
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,000
I hope you found
it helpful

115
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,260
for finding sources and

116
00:04:48,260 --> 00:04:49,840
journal articles through

117
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:52,980
APA PsycINFO at Miami.
