What is an empirical article? How do I find them?
Answer
For an article to be considered empirical it must report on some type of data found from an experiment or observation done by the author(s) of the article to answer a research question. The data may be collected through quantitative or qualitative research methods or through both.
You can find empirical articles in journals that have been peer reviewed - many of the library's databases will have this type of article.
Some terms to try include: empirical, study or studies, research, observation, experiment, survey, "participant group", qualitative, or quantitative.
Some databases also help you with limiters.
