About Magazines/E-Journals


Journals are more up-to-date than books and
provide information on the latest scholarly
research on a subject. They are very useful
resources when you do research. Magazines,
usually not for scholarly purposes, also provide the most recent information and knowledge on different subjects. 

Scholarly or Academic Journals

When an article is published in a peer-reviewed or refereed journal, it indicates that that article has been through a formal review process. It has been read by experts in the subject field before being accepted for publication.This ensures the information in the article is well-researched, and contributes to the knowledge of the subject area.

Peer Review

Peer review is a scholarly form of review for journal articles. After an article is sent to an academic journal, the editor sends it to several peer reviewers, typically fellow scholars in the same field as the author (peers), for evaluation.
These peer reviewers examine the paper's methodology, literature review, and conclusions. They note the existence of bias or other flaws. The peer reviewers may accept the article, require rewrites from the authors, or reject the article.

DOI

DOI (Digital Object Identifer) provides a persistent electronic link to a journal article or e-book. APA referencing style requires the DOI (where available) to be included in the Reference List citation.

Example journal article reference with doi:

Braaf, S., Riley, R., & Manias, E. (2015).    Failures in communication through documents and documentation across the perioperative pathway.    Journal of Clinical Nursing24(13/14), 1874-1884    doi:10.1111/jocn.12809.
