Sociology

A guide to research in the field of Sociology.

Finding Articles

The fastest way to find an article related to your topic in Sociology is to use the Burke Global Search, limiting your search to the Sociology field. Using Burke Global Search is the equivalent of scooping up a regular spoonful of vegetable soup: you get a little of everything.

If you want to do a more precise, nuanced search, you should choose one of the main Psychology databases we subscribe to. Doing a search with SOCIndex is like scooping up a spoonful of vegetable soup, only this time you are using a slotted spoon that filters out all but the biggest ingredients.

Either way you'll end up with resources for your paper. It all depends on how precise you need your resources to be.
