Types of articles in the natural and social sciences include:
A Research article reports on an original experiment or study that investigates a stated problem. The study is carefully controlled so that results are valid. Data is collected and analyzed.
A Literature Review summarizes and analyzes the important articles on a topic. Literature reviews are a great resource for learning about the scope of research, question, issues and theories in a field.
A Theoretical article is an article that presents a theoretical approach to a question or field. It draws on others' research to support the theory, rather than presenting new research and data.
Types include:
1. Note down the author, title of article, name of the magazine, journal or newspaper, and date of publication
2. Make an Interlibrary Loan Request so that the article can be sent to Green River
for you (note: online articles usually take about 3 business day; physical items (like books) may take a few weeks)
3. Or Ask a Librarian for help!
These databases will help you find journal, magazine and newspapers articles that are often not freely accessible on the internet.
