What are refereed journals? refereed journals have an editorial board to approve publication, a reference list and up to date contact details they are also known as peer reviewed articles
Database search techniques use the connecting words and/or the truncation symbol * enables a word to be searched by its stem, eg. manag* searches for manage, manager, management, etc. the wildcard symbol ? ensures different spellings are searched, eg. Globali?ation searches for globalisation (AUS) or globalization (USA)
