Can I perform a cited reference search in PsycINFO?
Yes. On the search screen, select the “keywords plus cited references” option. Then, enter words from the citation (such as the author’s surname and the most important words from the title), following each word with the characters .cit. and separating them with the word and. For example, if you were searching for works that cite Sigmund Freud’s The Interpretation of Dreams, you would type in: Note that PsycINFO contains cited references mainly for articles published from 2001 to the present. So, if you want your search to retrieve articles published before 2001, or if you just want to cast as wide a net as possible, you may want to try doing a cited reference search in ISI Web of Knowledge as well.
