© How to find materials for your research? #additional
Even though searching for other investigatons might be considered easily, serious projects demand a hundred or above of researches to give evidences of your hypothesis or to make methodology proven either.
1️⃣First step. You need to extract core concepts and keywords, but also make sure that your ideas are expressed clearly and commonly. For instance, "The Quantum Neurochemical Resonance of Traumatic Post-War Existential Depression in Survivors of the Great Conflict" must be transferred to "Depression rates among World War II survivors compared to the general population".
2️⃣Second step. You can choose two ways of searching for relatable materials: use AI, like Perplexity, to select (not just copypaste them!!) investigations, aricles and other materials or sufficiently look for the sources in Google Scholar, PubMed, APA and others by using the keywords and common topic. Your aim should be to find survey that was conducted for the same purposes or by the same methdologies as yours. Do not forget to range these researches by main context and time period, because older surveys might be improper in some disciplines, like psychology or physics.
3️⃣Third step. Exploit those researches to bring up their sources or articles either, but do not copy all materials because you are better to base on a variety of the similar investigations. Look for the sources cited by a paper or sources that cited this paper.
