The databases below are good, general databases to start. Type in your search term similar to what you used searching the library online catalog for books, and click search. These databases provides access to professional journal articles, newspaper articles, and magazine articles. You must be logged into HCC Libraries Online in order to access.
The article databases provide an easy way to locate authoritative information not just in article format, but also as statistical data. When searching for statistics on your topic, look for reports as the format.
Search in Academic OneFile for "college students" AND "mental health". Check Full Text under More Options.
After the results populate, choose Academic Journals from the Content Type box to the right and under the Document Format section in the right column, choose Reports or Survey.
Reports are based on research conducted by the authors and will most likely present some statistics. If not, also look for the Document Format of Statistical Data or Statistical Table or Survey or Case Study or Clinical Report.
