Finding Inclusive Case Studies in Journals

Finding inclusive case studies in journals may take a few steps.

Some journals in areas of business education are listed below, along with pre-built queries for case studies in each journal.

After launching the query, you can add search terms that relate to an aspect of inclusion to narrow the results down further. Examples: Hispanic; Black; Latino; Indigenous; Asian American; women; senior; disability; LGBTQ; etc. The search engine may offer you alternate terms. Entering "Black" in EBSCO searches, for example, yields the suggestion "black or african american or african-american or black american." Use the full set of options to include the variations in vocabulary within the journal.

To search journals or databases not listed here, use the term "case study or case studies" along with your topic.
