Peer-Reviewed Periodicals

Not sure if your article is peer-reviewed? Check Ulrich's Periodicals Directory (limited to 5 users at a time), following these steps:

  1. Enter the name of the journal and locate the title in the result list.
  2. If the publication is peer-reviewed, i.e., "refereed," then a black journal symbol appears to the left of the title.
