This session will demonstrate the use of the PICO (Problem/Patient, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) framework in searching the Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection (PBSC), a core EBSCOhost research database. In this session you will learn how to create the strategy, apply wildcards, truncation and proximity operators and also set up search alerts to keep current the latest research.

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

Create a search strategy using the PICO(T) framework
Apply wildcards and truncation to search strings
Create a search alert to keep current with the literature
