Abstract

PsycNET is the online platform from the American Psychological Association offering access to the most comprehensive collection of high-quality information available in psychology, psychiatry, the behavioral sciences, and related fields. Of special note is the variety of media and document types that make up the collections. The seven databases and two e-book collections are integrated into the search interface, allowing for simultaneous or separate searches. The interface Works well for undergraduate and advanced research, providing specialized searching and filtering options. Institutional pricing is reasonable, and several options allow individual access for those with limited needs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
