You are likely to find the most recent and in-depth answers to a research question in journal articles.
A journal is a regular scholarly publication that may cover specialist areas of a particular topic or discipline or provide more general, multidisciplinary content. Journals are a way for researchers, scholars, and experts to share their original research, findings, and insights with others and are a valuable resource for students and academics.
A peer-reviewed journal, also known as a refereed journal, is one in which research articles have been critically evaluated by subject experts before being accepted for publication.
Journals contain different types of articles. You can learn more about the different types of information you may need to use during your studies in the UniSQ Library guide, Information sources at university (UniSQ login required).
When searching in UniSQ Library Search, sometimes you will be taken to a journal homepage or database entry instead of an article, but you can still find the information you need using citation details such as year, volume, issue, and page number of the article.
