Q. What does peer-reviewed mean? How do I find a peer-reviewed article?

Scholarly Journals contain peer-reviewed articles written by and for experts in an academic discipline.

Peer reviewed journal articles are reviewed before publication by one or more experts in the field. These "referees" look for valid research methodology and accurate data, but do not necessarily support the conclusions of the author(s).

You can limit your search to peer-reviewed articles on the left-hand side of databases like Academic Search Complete or CINHAL.
