Potential Literature Reviews

Below is a list of potential literature reviews. The reviews on this list are all available on JSTOR. Search for them by entering the article title or author into the search field. These articles are all from different disciplines, and hopefully one will be interesting to you. If not, you can use JSTOR (or any of the techniques we will learn about in the library next week) to search for more literature reviews. Just be sure that they are comparable to these. They should be approximately 7-10 pages. Let me know if you need any help finding literature reviews! I am here to help.

To access JSTOR, you should go to our library's webpage. From there, click "Find Articles" and under the letter "J", you will find JSTOR. You will have to log in with your e-raider if you access JSTOR from off campus.

Remember, you MUST bring a literature review to class for credit this week.
