Most of your research at this education level should be from scholarly journals. Please read below the table to find out why. This table provides examples of scholarly journals and trade press in business. It is also easier, in many instances, to find trade press articles online with the full text, not just an abstract. Scholarly journals are not as likely to be found full text, although the number of articles and journals available in full text is growing rapidly.
Trade press is full text everywhere.
No one wants to photocopy a ten-page journal article when there is a trade press article online. You have to, though, if you want quality research and sources in your papers. The authors of scholarly articles have usually done a good amount of research on their subject and their references to other works will be documented in a bibliography or reference list with complete citations for these sources. When you cite a scholarly article, you have one author's analysis or account backed up by several others. When you cite Time magazine, you have one report or account, with no references.
