This chapter addresses the multidimensionality of job search behavior and provides a systematic review of the different job search behaviors and sources studied in the job search literature and their relationships with antecedent variables and employment outcomes. Organized within three major dimensions (effort-intensity, contentdirection, temporal-persistence), job search effort and intensity, job search strategies, preparatory and active job search behaviors, formal and informal job sources, specific job search behaviors, job search quality, job search dynamics, and job search persistence are discussed. This review...

...2 Define the distinctions between primary, secondary, and tertiary sources in a secondary search. The best way to distinct between the sources of secondary research is to define each. Primary sources are those that are direct and un-interpreted records of a subject that you are researching. A primary source can be just about anything such as books, artifacts, or even patents. Secondary sources are ones that build on primary sources. Analyzing, interpreting, and assessing primary information are examples of secondary. Tertiary sources are ones which present summaries of the current state of research topics. Some examples are dictionaries, web sites, or almanacs. The distinction between these can differ between subjects of research. If the subject for research was humanities then an example of a primary source would be letters by Martin Luther King. A secondary source could be a web site of his writings and finally the tertiary source could be an encyclopedia on the civil rights movement. 3 What problems of secondary data quality must researchers face? How can they deal with them? Using secondary data can sometimes cause problems. Although it can be quicker and sometimes cost effective there is always a chance of running in to these issues. The most cautious of these issues the researcher must be aware of is the reliability of the source. If the researcher were to sit in a meeting and take notes of a subject then they would be completely sure of the content of the notes...

...COM NURS 439 DISCUSSION QUESTION WEEK 2 One of the most challenging aspects once your PICOT question is developed is to conduct an effective search of the literature to be certain you have not missed important sources of information. I know I have been challenged in the past with being certain I had investigated all potential sources of evidence. For example, many times, I am researching educational literature and I often find that I can locate information from a variety of sources including nursing databases (Cinahl). One of the most helpful things I have found to do is when I am conducting a search is to look in the reference list for the articles I am choosing to discover if I am missing an important article or book from a source I haven’t explored yet. I look forward to learning about the challenges you faced in your literature search and how you overcame those challenges. I can assure you that we will all learn a lot from this discussion. The Course Outcomes (COs) we will apply in Unit 3 include: • Examine the sources of evidence that contribute to professional nursing practice. • Apply research principles to the interpretation of the content of published research studies. Review the guidelines, grading rubric, and brief video (link found in guidelines) that explain the Research Database Assignment due in Week 4.

...like to search; everyone else likes to find” (Tennant, 2003). While most librarians teach research strategies including: Boolean logic, accessing carefully chosen databases, and indexing; students are often discouraged and frustrated using these techniques. Most students simply want to Google their requests. For many students a simple keyword search is a convenient, simple process for locating information. Federated searching is providing options that may strike a happy medium for students and librarians alike by providing a keyword option to access the library’s databases. Federated searching is software or a service that allows multiple sources to be searched simultaneously. A library is required to purchase software and/or a service agreement from a vendor that provides access to information in the databases and on the Web. Using a search protocol, like Z39.50, the engine scans various databases, the Web, and library catalogs concurrently and provides an organized result for the searcher’s query. Metasearches are performed across both bibliographic and full-text databases. One major advantage of a federated search is that the query does not have to be repeated with various databases. When federated searching works well, it reduces the amount of time students spend locating data and encourages them to search for more information. “The goal of many federated search tools is to make the interface as simple and streamlined as possible, but the model that federated search products...

...media in a job search, and PSY180 Benefits of sports in the lives of children. For the COM106 topic, the need to use social media in a job search, I will need to locate three sources that will aid in a response to a fellow student who is arguing for the need of social media in job searches. Since the purpose of the investigation is locating information to respond to a post that is already made I would research from three different angles. The first search will be meant to locate information in support of the fellow student, the second will be to identify information on how the student’s idea would work, and my third search will be to identify information that could possibly be used to rebut the student’s viewpoint. I will use Google for all of my searches, it is my preferred search engine because I feel secure in the algorithm the system uses to identify web sites, and it will aid my search for credible sources. Because I am choosing to research three different points for the response I will alter the search terms appropriately. For the information in support of the other student’s opinion I plan to use the search phrase “benefits of social media in job searches,” for the neutral, informative response I plan to use the phrase “use of social media in job searches,” and for the rebuttal response I am choosing to use the search phrase “dangers in the use of social media in job searches.” I will evaluate the validity of the information and credibility of the source through three different...

...well as through Ebsco (National Library of Medicine [NLM], 2014). PubMed is a free database that includes the MedLine database plus in-progress citations, citations to articles that are out-of-scope, ahead of print citations, etc. PubMed citations often offer links to the full-text article (NLM, 2014). The PubMed website has a page that helps you use their search engine. You can search by key concepts, author, and journal name. You can also apply filters to your research to narrow it to journals only. Another tool that PubMed offers is the Clinical Queries tool; this allows you to narrow your research to clinical searches only. Finally, in order to find high-quality citations– usually the ones that come from the MedLine database- PubMed allows you to add MeSH to your search filters (National Center for Biotechnology Information, 2005). When using the PubMed website, I would make sure that the journal citations come from the MedLine database; this way I would know that the citations are original and reliable. Also, to make my search faster, I would add MeSH to my search filters. ProQuest Nursing and Allied Health Source ProQuest is a major provider of academic databases. Its...

...Use of Information Search Techniques and Tools on Web By Prof. A. B. Bhosle* A university, a college or an institution of higher learning is rightly described as community where teachers and scholars are the head, students are the body and the library is it’s heart. If the body is to perform its function properly and efficiently its hearth must be well maintained and strong in its functioning. Thomas Carlyle was not exaggerating when he described a ‘true university as a collection of books’.[1] The library is obviously the source of power of knowledge. In higher education and research, the use of library is a matter of concerns to students, teachers, and researchers. The exponential growth of literature often creates problems for them to access appropriate literature and their use. The problem has, however, considerably been resolved with the help of information and communication technology (ICT). The use of information technology for management and handling of information and data has grown significantly even in many least-developed countries, despite their economic constraints. The use of information technology in libraries has been profoundly affecting all aspects of information acquisition, storage, and transfer. Its magnificent development has dramatically changed the mode of library operations and information services; we have now started to speak of a new type of information source, ‘knowledge base’.[2] Computer-based communications have not only widened...

I selected the words combat* or counter and effect* or result* or consequence* or outcome* and “global warming*” or “climate change*”. The first time I put this information into the search engine I got zero results because I carelessly left out the end quote in the word global warming. After I fixed my mistake, I got a total of 37 results. I then proceeded to briefly look over book titles that seemed relevant to my topic to deduce which books to select for my assignment. Subsequently, I researched for the scholarly journal articles by going to the Academic Search Complete database. I used the advanced search engine and selected only peer reviewed journal articles, in English. When inserting the same keywords I used in my previous search, I attained 914 results. To...

But putting documents or pages on the web is easy, cheap, or free, unregulated, and unmonitored (at least in the USA). There is a famous Steiner cartoon published in the New Yorker (July 5, 1993) with two dogs sitting before a terminal looking at a computer screen; one says to the other ‘On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog.’ The great wealth that the Internet has brought to so much of society is the ability for people to express themselves, find one another, exchange ideas, discover possible peers worldwide they never would have otherwise met, and, through hypertext links in web pages, suggest so many other people's ideas and personalities to anyone who comes and clicks.
