Using library databases, find one research article for each of your chosen seminar topics. You will, therefore, end up with five seminar topics and five related journal articles. To find your research articles, you will need to search the Library data-bases for peer-reviewed journals which address your topics. These will normally be in critical social psychology, sociology, anthropology and cultural studies. Your research articles need to be empirical (present qualitative data such as interviews or focus groups) or theoretical (address theories of self and society) or both (combine qualitative data and theory).
