Note these materials are specific to operation
at the University of Pittsburgh.
2Using the Current Scientific Literature Major
Source of current knowledge
- What are the benefits and problems with
- Google (Google Google Scholar)
- Wikipedia
- Library books
- Text books
- Scientific literature
- What does it mean to be peer reviewed
- Typically 3 experts decide if methods appropriate
and results substantial and meaningful - Contrast other sources
3Literature Search Process
- Challenge
- Searching through 10,000 references to find the
ten critical ones - Note that scientific literature is vast
- Example Psych Info Search
- 77,814 Attention
- 41,926 and PYgt1990 (pub year)
- 276 and fMRI or (functional MRI) or
- (functional magnetic resonance imaging)
- 23 and ACC or (Anterior cingulate)
4Be Realistic About Your Search Effort
- Learn to use key tools
- web catalogue of reviewed scientific literature
(e.g. Science Citation Index) - Digital Library http//ug4fn7ck2h.search.serialsso
lutions.com/ - Reference manager software (Endnote)
- Set up a system that you can keep up
- Be strategic about filtering references
- Remember you need to read materials not just copy
them - You need to code information to remember it
- Summaries of the material in your words
5Modern Tools Help
- Outstanding search tools
- Programs to manage references
- Automatic embedding of references
- Easy access to digital versions of papers
- Dont forget the pre-digital era (pre 1990).
6Search is a professional career process
- Must cite and use literature
- Need to become world expert on specialized topic
- Must maintain information throughout career
7Search is an Iterative Process
Literature Search
Select Topic Of Interest
Consult General Sources (Books, review articles,
faculty)
Formal Vocabulary, Main Results
Consult Abstract Index, Academic Indexes, Search
Engines (Psych Info)
Pool Of Specific References Use Reference manager
program Organize and note pdf
Skim/read references Determine which are relevant
and what references are often referenced
Other References of Citing authors
Pool of useful references
Reference to Cited authors
Read carefully for Research information, Code
for retrieval
Check Science Citation Index
8Part 1 Reference Import Pitt WebSPIRS
9Selecting the Data Base
Click rather than checking
10Select Search Use of AND OR NOT
- Note can make a complex search expression
- use (), and, or, not
- use . to limit search to specific field
- use near for terms that must be near each other
- (fmri or "functional MRI" or "functional magnetic
resonance imaging").ab
11Combine multiple searches
12Combine searches
13Display searches
14Get Reference
15Save File Under Search NameRename File in
Meaningful Form
16Exporting Record for Import EndNote
- I recommend AGAINST looking at references in Data
Base because I can not annotate the search that
way - Recommend output from Data Base to reference
management program
17Output Records For In EndNote

19Copy into work EndNote file
20Getting All Reference From Author
Use author (AU) and in (institution) and you get
few misses and false alarms. Note you can build
an Endnote database well this way.
21Review Part 1 Reference Pitt WebSPIRS Reference
Retrieval
- You can use library services to search for
articles - Use complex search functions to make the search
more targeted - You can save PDFs at this time
- Make sure you rename files in useful form
- You can save search history for import to
reference management software - Recommend rapid export to reference management
software
22Part 2 Reference Managing (EndNote, Reference
Manager)
EndNote version 10 bibliographic software is
available to University students at a cost of
5.00. Students can pick up copies of EndNote at
Software Licensing Services, 105 Bellefield Hall

23Creating an InputWork File
- It is a good practice to do your initial
importing and processing in a work file and after
all you changes for the session are done import
to the final file. - Recommended .enl files
- InputWork work for that days session
- ProjectFile reference search for a particularly
project potentially over months. - PersonalCumulative - reference history merging of
project files on some basis
24Loading File Into EndNote
25Resulting Imported References
26End Note References, Display, Record
27Read Abstracts and Highlight
- In EndNote you can use bolding (Ctrl-B) to
highlight phrases in the abstract. - This allows a quick method of identifying the
major points for later reference. - The highlighting is saved in the EndNote file
speeding later review.
28Get Full Text Via EndNote
- Double Click reference
- Scroll to URL field
- Click on Science Direct Link
29Get Full Text Via EndNote
- Double Click reference
- Scroll to URL field
- Click on Science Direct Link
- Click on reference retrieval
- Get PDF reference
- Save/Rename PDF file
30Label Search
- It is important to label the references as you
import them. - Suggested labels
- Search date and project identifies context in
which found - Relevant/IGNORE allows selection of items
- Note importing references to ignore enables using
the discard duplicates options to quickly filter
out references from future searches. - Priority of the reference to the nature of your
search - Keywords that you might later use to retrieve
the reference
31Label Search For Search Project
- Take all inserted references and label them
- Use the Change and Move Fields option to update
all the selected references - Pick a field to store search selection options
(e.g., Custom 1) and put in search
identification.
32Set References To IGNOREBased on Checking Title
and Abstract
- Goal remove from view references that are not of
interest. Note there are 2 ways to do this - Delete references This removes references
reducing the library size but if import reference
from other searches they may be deleted many
times - Label as IGNORE or Relevant allowing later
searchers to discard duplicate IGNORES or
Relevants - Look at the reference titles and abstracts and
select items for action - Click to select items to be hidden
- Use the references to hide the selected items
(do this or often such as each page).
33Label Remaining Records Relevant
34Label Unselected References IGNORE
Select Not Relevant Change Field Custom 1 to
IGNORE
35Prioritize the References As you read the
Abstract, enter keywords, get PDF
36Enable Display of Fields For Sorting
37Sorting References for Review
- Sort by
- Author
- Priority
- Journal
38Searching ReferencesSimple search And, Or, Not
39Complex Search
- EndNote does NOT support parenthetical complex
Boolean search terms. They can be created by use
of multiple searches of the showing references - Example search
- (DLPFC or (frontal cortex)) and attention
- search data base DLPFC or frontal cortex
- search showing references attention
40Outputting High Priority References
- Search Label gt 5
- Export to spreadsheet, html, or document
41Setting and Using Keywords
- Select the keywords
- Add words to terms list
- Use terms/check red for allowed term
42Importing From Working .enl
- Working on a working bibliography
- Mark the bibliography
- Import using EndNote import, remove duplicates
43Review Part 2 Reference Managing
- Remember you are building references for the
extensive library research - Get some reference management software (e.g.
Endnote for 5). - Set up reference to import WebSPIRS Files
- Work on working library, not full library
- Label records as to the search
- Highlight abstract/add keywords notes
- Save PDFs as needed if want to check
44Part 3 Adding Citations to Manuscripts From
EndNote in Word
Note this assumes EndNote was installed on the
machine and added the EndNote menu options to
Word.
45Word Processing Set the Format
46Insert a Reference
47Resulting Reference Citation
After second reference is Inserted.
Note you can copy the references to the proper
place in the manuscript.
48Review Part 3 Adding Citations to Manuscripts
- Use Endnote to find and insert references
- Try not to type references but rather import them
as much as possible - Do NOT alter citation fields on references
- Select reference type.
49Part 4 Science Citation Search
http//isi4.isiknowledge.com/portal.cgi?DestAppWO

Note potential of miss typed references
54Check Ref, Select Citations
55Export Citations to EndNote
Note You can only export 500 records at a time.
56Generating Records
57Save As .enl File
- Append file to EndNote Library
- Note pre-generate in EndNote a work file this
adds the references to an .enl file.
58See Added References
59Label References As Citing Target
- Label both the type of search and citation
60Get PDF through Clicks
61Import Working References to the Main Search
Library
- In EndNote Close the InputWork file with the
file menu - Open the main Reference file
- Import the InputWork File
Cautions Make backups (e.g., Search 0.01,
0.02), semester backups Label each search so it
can be identified Import to cumulative
directories only after search complete
62Review Part 4 Science Citation Search
- Do search on key references
- Use EndNote to remove duplicates
- Label the search source
- Make notes on references as to priority, edit
keywords and notes - Get PDFs as needed

easy to backup - Suggestion on My Documents or on a server (that
it is backed up) - Literature Search
- Work (temporary work areas)
- Archives
- Cumulative Reference File
- Project Files
- Make sure your reference system is backed up and
periodically stored off site. Keep several
versions (e.g., monthly backups, until semester)
Semester backups, 3 years of back ups
73Importing Other Reference Libraries
- When you import references from other sources
(e.g., a review that a colleague has done) - Identify the source and year for later work
- Decide what to do about duplicates (either
discard or put in duplicates folder)
74Organize Paper Libraries
- If you are printing/copying papers come up with a
scheme to store them. - Project files first author/date
- Migrate files to full file after project no
longer active - Full Alphabetical first author/date

Index and Endnote to find citations of a paper,
all the papers by the author, create an Endnote
library, and an ABA style library. Due midnight
9/12/07 (points off for being late) sent to
brainsystems2007_at_gmail.com - It is strongly recommended that students get a
copy of EndNote (version 10) EndNote version 10
bibliographic software is available to University
students at a cost of 5.00.Students can pick up
copies of EndNote at Software Licensing Services,
105 Bellefield Hall between 830 AM and 500 PM,

addition students will download software from the
web during the course. Do screen grabs to insert
information (e.g., Alt-Print Screen Windows or
Grab utility on the MAC). - Template
- Name ?? Email??
- Assignment H1 Library Homework Assignment
- Identify reference published between 1991-2004
(note I used Mishkin as a sample) - Find reference in Science Citation Index report
number of citations, copy line from text - Report if other papers appear by the author in
similar time period get title of reference and
indicate relevance - Retrieve references of cited paper and top of
page of cited reference - State name of cited file you would save the pdf
of - Get all the papers by the author from SCI
Output of number of references and most recent - Export references to EndNote show end note list
(make sure get abstract and URL link. Show
screen grab of the listing sorted by date - Read and highlight the abstracts of the 5 most
recent papers rate them for similarity to the
starting paper on a 3 point scale 1-not relevant,
2- somewhat relevant, 3 right on the same
content, ener the priority in the label field,
and show the list in priority ranked order. - Create a short bibliography in APA style of the
three most recent papers using Endnote (Be
careful to remove the field codes in endnote from
the document )
