Psychology Dashboard: Welcome

Your Librarian is Christine Slaughter

Each school/department at UVA is assigned a research librarian. Connect with Christine for help with your assignments. This service is available to all Psychology students, and meeting with a librarian early in your research process can help you save time and get a better grade.

Christine can help with: learning how to use the Library online, brainstorming your research topic, developing your search strategy, capstone/thesis/dissertation planning, identifying relevant databases/journals for your literature reviews, tracking down resources, and citation management. Christine can meet with you in-person or online via Zoom.

Academic databases contain peer-reviewed articles, scientific papers, psychological tests and measurements, and more. These are the most used and useful databases for Psychology research.

For most courses in Psychology our preferred citation style is American Psychological Association (APA): 7th Edition. APA Style is used by writers in many disciplines around the world for concise, powerful, and persuasive scholarly communication.
