Nursing Research Guide

Guidance for Nurses and Allied Health Researchers

Peer Review in 3 Minutes


Remember you can use a filter in OneSearch and CINAHL/MEDLINE from EBSCOhost so your search results will be from academic journals.

Almost every article in PubMed is peer reviewed so you will not find that filter. 

Making Sense of a Scientific Journal Article

Getting Started with Nursing Research

Welcome!

This page is designed to highlight library information and support for students of BNURS 350.

My hope is that our time together and these resources will help you search effectively in CINAHL and MEDLINE from EBSCHost as well as PubMed. I want you to have a basic understanding of levels of evidence, peer-review, and tools that can help you make sense of a journal article. Lastly, I want to share some help for APA citation.
