Hi I want to study/read historical psychology. I know it's a weird question! But I'm very curious how was the people mental healt in time were religion was everything and they were very poor, living little village. How they lived everyday, how they behaved, who the patients were. How could i look for this? Where?
You might want to learn some basic research (Quick google gave me some hits)
Start by structuring/make your key words.
PsychologyPrehistoricCognative
make a bunch of words, and you might want to look into how to improve your 'search'.
For example:Writing just: Historical psycologyYour search engine will search for both historical and psycology but not the words together neccesarly.Writing: "Historical psycology" (With qoutation marks) will limit your search for when the words occur in that relation.
When you have done some research on how to make a proper search, start combining your words together in blocks. then begin your search
Try using search engines as Google scholar, Jstor or just start with google (According to my professor only 6% of acedemic articles is on google, so you will have to go outside google to make proper research).
When reading a great article, try look for further reading in their references or see if their article has been cited (This is like the goto method) - make a reference for the article you are reading and simply google it for example.
I dont have a source for this, but I just had a lecture on this (Im on my 8th. semester and it was like our 3rd class on how to make searches - hope it helps)
