Building Block searching is my preferred type of searching. It requires thought and planning before hand but produces specific results. ASP is a user-friendly database and I am familiar with it. ASP contains a wide range of journals including Journal of Social Psychology, Family Relations, and Journal of Education. The records are easy to examine as to whether or not they are what you are searching for.
