Here are some ways to use keywords in a more complex search:
- By using the word AND to combine keywords databases will yield a narrower and more specific set of results, since AND tells the database to retrieve articles that have both keywords in them.
- By using the word OR to combine keywords databases will yield a broader and more comprehensive set of results, since OR tells the database to retrieve articles that have either one of the keywords in them (rather than both).
Examples:
Epilepsy OR "seizure disorder"
Epilepsy AND Women
Epilepsy AND (Teens OR Children)
