About Peer Review

If your professor asks you to find "peer reviewed" journal articles, be sure the article you find is from a source that has gone through the peer review process. Many databases offer a search filter to limit to only journals that are peer reviewed. You can also check the journal title in the Ulrich's database to see if it is peer reviewed.
