You have to remember that I work at a college. These things are not as obvious as you would like to think (using UsWeekly).

Hi Leigh,
I mean, at the end of the day it comes down to cats and the funny things they do. That’s a given.
In my experience, the distinction for periodicals gets muddier and muddier. In fact, we have some periodicals that faculty assume are peer-reviewed, but they’re not! Things written by economists, lawyers, or researchers seem so academic-y. Although using UsWeekly in a paper would be a pretty majestic feat, I have to say.

I find distinguishing the trade periodicals is the confusing part. The students get that they can’t use UsWeekly but they usually will say they can use Psychology Today – because it has ‘psychology’ in the title.

I enjoyed this post! But I do think that cat videos are still the best.
