English - Why Johnny Can't Disobey

Just a reminder of the sources covered during the Library orientation on Friday.

What words should you use?
Try any one of the following: obedience; conformity; peer influence; altruism. You could also look at: honor codes; whistle blowing; nonconformity; moral development.
In most cases, limiting by the word children works well.
NOTE: Some of the words work better in some databases than in others.

Check MCC Library's catalog, MIDAS, to find books, videos and DVDs on your topic.
You can also check the collection of e-books on psychology: PsycBooks.
Can't find what you need at MCC Library?
Check WorldCat for additional titles and request them through Interlibrary Loan.

For articles from magazines, journals and newspapers, use the following databases:
Academic Search Premier

Lexis-Nexis Remember to do a "Guided News Search", Step 1 "General News", Step 2 "Major Papers". The default time period is 6 months, but you can search "All of the dates" or anywhere in between.

If you are interested in seeing older New York Times articles, use the Historical New York Times.
