Therefore, it is important to keep our knowledge up to date. We encourage students to read widely and use the most current research you can find. If you have a journal article that falls outside the 7-year limit, ask the following: • Have I searched for a more recent article? (Try searching using key words from the title of the reference you have.) • Is there nothing more recent that could replace it? • Does it contain important information that is relevant and have historical significance to my essay? Can I justify using an older source within my essay? • An example of older resources that are acceptable: o Hampton, R., Toombs, Maree, & ProQuest. (2013).
