To narrow down my results on Academic Search Premier Database, I used the "AND" under search and limit my search to recent publication dates. I also narrow down my results by limiting my search to scholarly articles and full text format. Again, I make sure I checked for typos in the choice of keyword(s) I input. Equally, I was able to do same for the CINAHL Plus database.
I found more than ten relevant articles on both databases. Majority of my search results was on full text format because I selected this option. I also had few of the FindIt via EBSCO Refs and via other databases. There were few print articles in SCSU collection. I found almost five that were not available and requires ILL request on CINAHL Refs and other databases Refs.
Hi Taiwo,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your post about CINAHL. I am confused...you should be able to use the same search strings on CINAHL as you would for Academic Search Premier, as they have the same interface (both are EBSCO products). Do you mean that Academic Search Premier gave you more results?
Sincerely,
Professor Wexelbaum
Yes Prof. Wexelbaum. I mean Academic Search Premier gave more results on my topic than CINAHL.
