What is an empirical article and how do I search for one on my topic?
Answer
An empirical article is a scholarly paper that reports on research based on actual observations or experiments. It presents original findings from qualitative or quantitative research methods, or a combination of both, which are known as mixed methods. These articles typically include sections like introduction, literature review, methodology, results, discussion, and conclusion. To find an empirical article in the Carrington College Library, include the term empirical in your search (see below for an example). Find the One Search Box on the Library Homepage.
