How to Identify the Journal in which an Article was Published
BackDifferent websites display the journal name in different places. Usually, it is at the top of the page, near the date of publication, the title, and the authors' names.
Some common places you may find scientific articles online include:
Pubmed NCBI
On Pubmed, the journal name is listed, typically abbreviated, at the top left of the page above the title. If you don't understand the abbreviation, google it to find the full name.
Science Direct
On Science Direct, the journal name is featured prominently above the title.
Springer Link
On Springer Link, the journal name is just below the authors' names.
Wiley Online Library
On Wiley, the journal name is featured prominently above the title.
A Journal's Own Website
Articles may also be hosted on a website owned directly by the journal itself. In this case, the journal name will typically be prominent somewhere on the page. If you cannot see it, the name will also typically be in the address bar.
Somewhere else?
If the journal isn't on one of these website options, the journal name should still be near the top.
