Question by buzzin’ around: How do i find an original research publication?
I have to have 10 scholarly sources for a debate about whether or not alcoholism/drug abuse could be genetic. I can’t just pull the information out of google. For example, I did google it, read an article, and a piece of relevant info I can use, I can’t cite that website, because they cite somebody else with that fact.

One of the the facts/studies I’d like to point out that I read online said next to it: (1990, Blum et. al) Another said: (Gordis et. al)

How do I locate 1990 Blum et. al and/or Gordis et. al, so that I can find and read that study?

Try looking at some place like http://www.lulu.com/ – which is the site online universities will sometimes use as a virtual library. It’s actually very handy.

Question by StoryWeaver: Are there Different Types of Short-Term Memory?
I ask this for a few reasons: one is that I’m just curious, another is that I kind of have poor short-term memory in certain areas but not others. I had a stroke when I was an infant (I’m sixteen now, and despite the doctor’s initial predictions I’m perfectly capable of walking, speaking, and intelligent thought….obviously….) and it has undoubtedly had permanent affects on me. For example, I had a 2-year gross motor delay, same with fine-motor, and I am much weaker on my left side. I’m also partially-blind. But I think I have memory problems too. There are times where I’ll repeat the same question multiple times to my friends without realizing it, and I’m constantly forgetting about plans or commitments that I’ve made. The weird thing is that if I make these plans like two weeks in advance I don’t forget them, but I do if they’re made the day before. Part of me wonders if it’s just severe ADD, but I really do forget some huge things. There are times when my parents ask me how my day was and I suddenly realize that I can’t remember a single thing that happened.
BUT, I *can* remember songs on the piano (and play them by memory), and I’m really good at memorizing lines in a poem or script, and am really good at remembering patterns. That’s kind of why I’m curious as to whether or not there are different types of short-term memory, one that’s patterns while the other’s accumulative maybe. I’m not saying I have a memory disorder, but I am a little worried lol.
