MIR-850: Organizational Behavior

Article indexes, traditionally referred to as bibliographic databases, are collections of journal articles, book chapters, conference proceedings etc. that are often focused on a particular academic discipline.

In this instance, PsycINFO will capture the interpersonal and/or behavioral aspects of the workplace and ProQuest One Business should capture the business and economics literature.
