The American Psychological Association (APA) has announced the addition of a new dictionary feature in PsycARTICLES when accessed through the APA PsycNET search platform. From within the full text HTML display, APA PsycNET users can click underlined terms in PsycARTICLES to view a pop-up window containing the definition. PsycARTICLES is a database of full-text articles from journals published by APA, the APA Educational Publishing Foundation, the Canadian Psychological Association and Hogrefe Publishing Group.
Approximately 20,000 terms from the APA Dictionary of Psychology have been tagged and integrated to help users better understand the content they are viewing. The feature is expected to be helpful to undergraduate students or interdisciplinary researchers who might not be familiar with certain general or specialised psychological terminology.
PsycARTICLES comprises over 152,000 articles, including the current issue through volume 1 issue 1 for most publications, and spans over a century of psychological literature. APA PsycNET is the full-featured delivery platform designed specifically for APA databases and electronic content.
