Welcome to the Psychology Research Guide!

Psychology at Murray State University is interdisciplinary. You don't know where your research will take you! Whether you are just getting started or continuing your journey, this Research Guide is a modest attempt to put the most prominent research tools in one place.

If you have any questions on these resources or would like to schedule a research consultation, contact a Research and Instruction Librarian listed on the right.

For more information on Psychology programs and research at Murray State University, please visit the official Psychology home page.

Racer Writing Center

Racer Writing Center
Please arrive at your appointment prepared to read your work to one of our consultants. Keep in mind that our goal is to teach you the best strategies to become a better writer. We are not an editing service; we strive to teach you how to become better editors of your own work. If you are seeking helping with citation and documentation, we will teach you how to use style guides and the Purdue OWL to find the answers your seek. Please take a moment to review all our policies and procedures before arriving at the center -- we look forward to working with you!
