How to Search the Library

Find publications using keywords and filters for years, topics, methods, and groups.

Start with the main search

Enter words from a publication title, author name, journal, research topic, research method, group studied, geographic focus, or research notes. You can also enter a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), including a full doi.org link.

Capitalization, punctuation, and hyphens do not affect the search.

Examples: victim recovery, pig butchering prevention, older adults, or a DOI such as 10.xxxx/example.

Use related terminology

The search also checks selected equivalent and closely related terms, including romance scam and romance fraud, victim and survivor, recovery and coping, and pig butchering and romance baiting.

Narrow the results

Combine publication year, publication type, research topic, geographic focus, research method, groups studied, and free full text filters. The number beside each choice shows how many publications match your other selections.

Understand result labels

Found in identifies where your search words appeared in the publication record. RS Focus is a 0-10 estimate of how strongly the publication focuses on romance scams. A free full text link opens a version that can be read without a subscription.

Sort and browse

Use Best match for keyword searches, or sort by publication date, title, or author. Open a publication to read its details, move to the previous or next result, and return to the same filtered results and position.
