To search for peer reviewed articles, you will want to search one or more of our online Research Databases at http://libguides.limestone.edu/alldatabases. You can search a general database that covers a variety of topics (Academic Research Premier, Academic OneSource, etc) or you can search more subject specific databases (SocIndex, Social Sciences Full Text, Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection, Research Starters - Sociology)
Be sure to select options for Peer Reviewed and Full Text directly under the search box. On the Library Tutorials page you can view a brief introduction to Search Everything (http://libguides.limestone.edu/LibraryTutorials), along with other helpful tutorials.
When researching the topic try searching for terms such as:
Death
Dying
Mortality
You may want to combine terms to limit the research to specific geographical areas such as:
Death AND United States
There are many related subjects such as:
Suicide
Homicide
Grief
Sudden death
Or you can research specific causes of death like:
Cardiac Arrest
Cancer
Violent deaths
Terminal Illness
These are only a few suggestions, you will find other terms to use for additional research as you search our databases. If you need further assistance please let us know. Thank you for using Ask A Librarian.
