Viewing Search Results

The Search Results page presents titles of documents that meet your search criteria. This page appears following a search using Author Search, Basic Search, Advanced Search, or the Quick Search feature on the Publication Page.

The top of the Search Results page provides a search results summary. For example:

images\SROVERVW.jpg

It also provides an area for refining the search. For example:

images\SRSABOX.jpg

Search results are organized by year in descending order with fifteen results per page, unless otherwise specified under Search Options on the Basic or Advanced Search pages. Each results listing is five lines long, providing the document title, author(s)/editor(s), the complete title, and page numbers.

Note: The last line of each results item tells you whether a document appears in a journal (JNL), conference proceeding (CNF), or standard (STD).

On the Search Results page, you can:

·      Revise your search specification to generate broader or narrower results using the Search Again query box.

·      Print the search results by clicking your browser’s print button.

·      Scroll through the search results pages using the Previous and Next buttons.

·      View the Citation/Abstract record for a document by clicking Abstract.

·      View the full text of a document to which you or your institution subscribes by clicking PDF FULL-TEXT.

·      View Extended Objects (where available), which are files that support an author’s concepts, including multimedia files, data set files, or even programming files.
