Using APA PsycInfo Classification Codes on EBSCO

Posted on February 13, 2025February 13, 2025 by Marta Soto in For Faculty, For Individual Subscribers, For Librarians, For Students

Classification Codes are used in APA PsycInfo and other APA Databases to broadly categorize the primary subject matter or the main focus of an article, book chapter, or dissertation.

Adding Classification Codes to your query can help limit your search to a particular content theme. They’re a great tool for quickly limiting a large list of search results to better fit your research question, or when a search term can mean different things in different contexts, or different subfields of psychology.
