Nursing Research: Find an Article From a Nursing Journal

A guide to nursing research designed and created by Clark Librarians

Search Options

  • Start in the CINAHL database
  • Use the Journal Subset section under Search Options on the Advanced Search page to limit to Nursing (screenshot from CINAHL database only)

Highlighting First Author is Nurse, Any Author is Nurse, and Journal Subset areas of Search Options

  • If you need to find an article written by a nurse, you can also check one or both boxes: First Author is Nurse and Any Author is Nurse
  • Scroll back up to the top of the page, type in your keywords, and Search

Other Ways to Find Nursing Journals

  • Type the word nurs* in the search box and change the drop-down to SO Publication Name. This will look for the words like nurse, nursing, nurses, etc. in the journal title

nurs* in search box with SO Publication Name in the drop-down next to it

  • Then add your keywords to the other search boxes and Search
  • Use this strategy in CINAHL, MEDLINE, or Health Source: Nursing/Academic (the screenshot above will look the same in those databases except the database name, but the wording may be different in other EBSCO databases)
