Q. I need to find an article in the Journal of Family and Consumer Sciences. Where do I find that journal online?

Or is it the Family and Consumer Sciences journal? Something like that?

    is published by the American Association of Family and Consumer Sciences and used to be called the Journal of Home Economics
  • Family and Consumer Sciences Research Journal
    is published by American Association of Family and Consumer Sciences and used to be called the Home Economics Research Journal

  1. This is a perfectly good answer, but the further question is that students are looking for articles on specific topics IN this journal. There's a search box in the upper right that will allow them to search within the journal for articles related to their topics. NPG
