Database 1

PsycInfo
Psychology
1872 - present
Scholarly and Popular
It has off-campus access
Some Full text available

Database 2

PsycARTICLES
Psychology
1988 - present
Scholarly
It has off-campus access

Comparison:

PsycARTICLES seems easier to use because its searches bring more relevant information and all the articles are in full text. Although PsycInfo brings more results but many of its articles are not in full text
PsycInfo brings up more choices and some popular sources while PsycARTICLES bring less choices but are scholarly and more relevant
