Researching on the database.

My instructor said I could message here to get some help on which databases I should use for my research or maybe the best word choice for the search bar.

I am needing peer reviewed articles over the following. Any help would be appreciated.

1) The effects on spending based on mode of payment/importance of cash awareness (spending cash vs. using a card to pay),
2) looking at a what is credit score and all about how it works.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Emily

You need to go to the Myers Library Online Page on the OU Portal and login with your OUID and password. Look for the Online Databases link and then find Ebscohost. In Ebscohost combine Academic Search Premier and Business Source Premier by checking the box next to each database and then press continue. You will find a search box. Make sure that before your search you go below the box and find scholarly and peer-reviewed articles and check it. Try searches like spending AND cash awareness. If you don't find what you are looking for then change your terms until you do. If you want to find information about credit score then enter that search term into the box and decide what else to add to narrow your search.

If you have any further questions please contact the library desk or call me at 785-248-2536
