A Quick Introductory Tutorial:
Guide to the CD-ROM


This Quick Introductory Tutorial is designed to get you started using the PEP Archive 1v3 (1920-1998) CD-ROM disc. Mac users please note: this help has been not been adapted for Mac users but should nevertheless be useful. Printing and other functions will be as usual on your Mac.

This online PEP-Help Manual may be run at the same time as you are using the PEP Archive 1v3 Folio Views to research the PEP Archives. Keep both windows open and while you work through the examples. It has been found to be more helpful to start using the PEP Archive only AFTER taking the 45 minute tutorial.

Start by printing out this Quick Introductory Tutorial.

 In this way, you can read the tutorial from your hardcopy and at the same time, practice using your PEP Archive program, by switching back and forth between the two programs by pressing the ALT and TAB keys together.

Note:      Please make sure that you have only this PEP-Help and PEP Archive Program running, or else using Alt Tab will take you to other opened programs as well.

To Print This Tutorial: Click on the Print button at the top Menu Bar or press the short cut key 'P' and it will print out using your default printer and settings.

1. Getting Started

To begin the tutorial you need first to make sure the CD is in your CD drive, if you have not done a "Full Install".

IMPORTANT NOTE: YOU MUST MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE INFOBASE CD IN THE DRIVE, NOT THE SETUP CD, OR YOU WILL CRASH YOUR SYSTEM!

Then start Folio Views. To learn how to start Folio Views:

*Click here if you have Windows or print out the topic "Starting PEP CD-ROM in Windows"

 

*Click here if you are running a Macintosh version of the disc or print out the topic "Starting the PEP CD-ROM on the Macintosh"

Generate/check.gif      Start the PEP CD Archive (Folio Views). Switch to Folio Views now if its already running.

*Click here for more information about how to switch between PEP-Help and Folio Views or find and print out the topic in PEP-Help: "How to switch between PEP-Help and Folio Views"

 

The Folio Views opening window should look like this, except without the yellow callouts which label the different tools and views:

     Generate/New PEPHelp Callouts.gif

Each of these tools will be explained as we go through the tutorial. But first, we want to get you familiar with the Search Engine.

2. Find What's Been Written on a Topic

PEP has customized the way the Folio search engine works to make it a particularly powerful tool to search the psychoanalytic literature.

Search engines have a complex underlying logic. Those who are really interested and skilled can use Folio Views to develop their own special searches. But PEP has tried to make it easier by creating THREE customized methods easily accessible by buttons to be found in the top left hand side of your screen, on the Toolbar. You will see three search icons labeled 1, 2, and 3 and an icon that clears the searches.

Generate/Tool Bar-Search123.gif

Generate/check.gif      Finding One Term

You will find that using the specialized PEP Search by Context dialog will make most all your searches very easy. There are several ways to get to the Search by Context dialog. But by far the simplest way is just to press the Search by Context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif found on the Toolbar on the top of your screen and shown here:

Generate/Tool Bar.gif

The box in the middle of the Toolbar is called the Query Dialog box where you can type in terms to do a ranked search. There are different navigational arrows for browsing and Study Aids tools on the left side.

Another way to access the Search by Context -- "Author, Title, Journal Year, etc." Menu is to

 Generate/check.gif Select 1. Search by Context from the pull-down on the Search Menu Bar at the top of the Folio Views screen or keystroke Control + 1 [Ctrl +1].

This is what the Search Menu looks like:

     Generate/Search pull down.gif

After you click on the Generate/SRCHCXT.gif icon or select the Search by Context pull-down menu, the PEP Search by Context screen appears.

Generate/SrCxDlg3com.gif

Generate/check.gif      Start by positioning your cursor in the first dialog box .

Generate/check.gif      Type in: countertransference and your screen will now look something like this.

Generate/SrCxDlg-counter trans.gif

Notice that the “radio” labeled “paragraph” on the top right of the Search screen is checked – this happens by default. This means that we have looked for all the paragraphs in all the articles on the disc where the term “countertransference” appears. You can see in the "Results Pane"that the search for countertransference yielded 4348 articles where a paragraph with this term can be found.

The “word index” appears in the left window of the Search screen and shows the varieties of spellings, partly due to copy editing errors in the original journals, partly due to the different parts of speech).

You may feel these are rather a lot of articles to look at! However, the point of a search of this kind (and the great advantage of the PEP disc) is that it begins to teach you how to look more precisely at what you might be interested in. By adding words (and concepts), you can further refine your search.

 

Let us suppose we are interested not just in the term “countertransference” but in the specific question of the way countertransference can lead the analyst to enact with the patient. We can now refine our search by defining the context in which the term appears.

Generate/check.gif      Refining a Search

Generate/check.gif      Type in the word "enactment" after the word “countertransference”.

Be sure your cursor is in the top dialog box, as before. Your screen will look like this:

Generate/SrCxDlg-counter trans-enact.gif

In the "Results Tree" or "Results Map", you can see the previous 4348 articles where “countertransference” can be found and also the 1470 articles where the term “enactment” is present. The bracket joining these terms indicates that there are 326 articles where the two terms come together in the same paragraph.

Limit Search to Checked Branches - For more information Click Here.

List Bibliography from your Search allows you to print your results, export them to a wordprocessor document, or send them to a colleague. For more information Click Here.

Generate/check.gif      Place your cursor on the second of the two radios marked “article” and click.

Generate/SrCxDlg-counter trans-enact-art.gif

There are 772 articles or hits, a finding that illustrates the different function played by the paragraph and article radios. When the article button is checked it means we have found an article where the two terms appear somewhere. When the paragraph button is checked it means the two terms were in the same paragraph

IMPORTANT: The paragraph context makes it much more likely the articles found will contain discussion of our topic – countertransference enactment.

The point just made can be verified by actually looking at the articles we just found. But first we need to establish how to display your results and navigate through them.

Generate/check.gif      Displaying Your Results

After pressing OK to run the previous search on countertransference enactment, your document window will show the first place in a paragraph by Aarons, where the words countertransferene or enactment are. To go to the top of the article, shown below from your search countertransference enactment,

Generate/check.gif      Press the Generate/toolbarShiftF5.gif navigational button to go to the top of the Aarons article.

Generate/SrCxDlg-ctra-ok.gif

The Tabs bar shown at the bottom of the screen above, allows you to select different views of the data, i.e. different options for displaying the window panes of information, depending on what you find convenient and what you want to do.

You can have All the panes, just the Document pane (for document reading), or the Ranking pane (which lists the hit references in ranked order. You can select the Bibliography window pane (gives full bibliographic information for each article and lists the hit references in alphabetical order by author), or you can select the Search view , which gives you the Document and Ranking window panes. The Browse view pane gives you the Document and the Bibliography window panes. The Graphic tab is used to look at tables or pictures in an article. When you double click on a graphic, it automatically zooms to an enlarged view in the Graphic screen.

You can change the tabs to have a different view. Experiment with each view yourself by clicking on the relevant tab.

3. Making Sense of your Search Results

Let's return to the last Search by Context search we did on countertransference and enactment.

Generate/check.gif   Open the Search by Context Screen using the Generate/SRCHCXT.gif icon or [Ctrl + 1].

Look for the previous search by clicking on the Previous on the bottom left hand side of your Search screen. Click it as many times as you need until the last result comes back – the one showing 772 hits.

Generate/check.gif   Click OK

Generate/CounterAarons-art.gif

Aarons 1975 article displays with the one of the terms “countertransference” highlighted.

Note: In this article search the two terms did not have to appear in the same paragraph., they only had to be anywhere in the same article.

Generate/check.gif   Re-Open the Search by Context Screen using the Generate/SRCHCXT.gif icon or hit [Ctrl +1].

Generate/check.gif  Click Previous

Generate/check.gif  Check the paragraph level radio

Generate/check.gif  Click OK

Generate/CounterAarons-para.gif

Generate/check.gif  Click on the Generate/toolbarF4.gif to move through the hits in the paragraph and notice that countertransference and enactment are both together in the same paragraph creating a more limited and specific search.

It is curious that Paula Heimann’s 1950 article on countertransference, often considered one of the most important influences on modern psychoanalytic technique, does not appear in the list of articles in the Contents window. In asking why not, we will come to understand much more both about the PEP CD and how Folio Views works as a search program

Remember that the search we just ran will only pick up the articles which use the term countertransference. Perhaps Heimann’s work does not appear because she writes about the analyst’s feelings, rather than the term countertransference. To search for articles which contain the phrase "analyst's feelings" requires a phrase search.

Generate/check.gif Click on the Search by Context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif or [Ctrl +1].

Generate/check.gif      Type in the top window the phrase "analyst's feelings".

NOTE:      You must type in the quotation marks as they identify this as phrase search. Otherwise, the search is for any article with the two words "analyst's" and "feelings"

Generate/check.gif      Press OK or the Return key

The results in the "Results Tree" will show 125 instances or hits shown will look something like this:

   Generate/Searby cont-analysts feelings.gif

Move the cursor to the Bibliography pane and scroll down (using arrow keys) to look for Heimann's name. There it is!

It may have occurred to you that the results we have been getting may have been been influenced by the fact that for many years it was customary to spell countertransference with a hyphen. Like any computer program Folio Views will look only for what you tell it. In fact, it is designed to treat hyphens as spaces. Therefore to search for counter-transference, you need to conduct a phrase search using quotation marks to define the phrase "counter-transference".

Generate/check.gif  Open Search by Context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif or use keys [Ctrl +1].

Generate/check.gif      Type in: "counter-transference" (with quotes).

There are 600 references this time.

Generate/check.gif      Press OK or the Return Key

Notice the results in the bibliography pane, where several Heimann articles are displayed.

Generate/check.gif      Click the Generate/tab_bibliography.gif Tab and scroll down until at last we find Heimann.

Generate/check.gif      Double-Click on Heimann's name

   Generate/Counter-heimann.gif

The article will be displayed in the Document Window. We can see that Heimann uses the term counter-transference, not countertransference.

Generate/check.gif  Open Search by Context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif or use keys [Ctrl +1], once again.

Generate/check.gif      Type into the first dialog box c*rtr*ce

You are requesting a "wildcard search". The "Word Index" in the left pane will show the many different ways of spelling countertransference that are present in the database – 4351 hits in all.

Generate/countert.gif

 

4351 articles have been found with a paragraph in which at least one of these spellings present. You may wish to use wild cards in this way if you anticipate the term may have spelling problems or be used in different grammatical forms – for instance enact* will find enact, enacted, enacting, enactment, etc.

 

 NOTE: The numbers may vary on the screens, if the screen captures were done on earlier versions of this final PEP Archive. See the PEP website (www.p-e-p.org) for more information about data entry and authoring error rates on the CD-ROM

4. Finding Footnotes and Other Works by an Author

We can use a special feature of the disc - hyperlinks - to look at Heimann's article and use it to introduce some other interesting features.

 

This time find Heimann’s article the quick way by again.

Generate/check.gif  Open Search by Context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif or use keys [Ctrl +1].

Generate/check.gif      Type Paula Heimann

20 articles will be shown. You could see all twenty by clicking OK. But instead just enter 1950 in the Year box.

Generate/HeimanSearchby cont50.gif

 

Now one article is displayed. Click OK. Your document window on your screen will display the title of the paper and author etc. and will look like this.

 

Generate/HeimanSearch50-2.gif

 

The number 1 in red super-scripted at the end of the title indicates there is a footnote. Have a look!

Generate/check.gif      Place the cursor on the colored number 1 and Click - a footnote box will open to display the footnote.

 

Generate/2HEMFT.gif

 

Generate/check.gif      Click the X in upper right corner of screen to close this footnote box.

Generate/check.gif      Now place the cursor on the name PAULA HEIMANN and notice how it changes into a hand

Generate/check.gif      Click

Another box will open, listing all other articles in the archive written by Heimann P.

Generate/Heimanbiblist.gif

 

The articles listed are in color, indicating a hypertext link directly to any of them. If you click the cursor on the colored text you will be taken directly to that specific article.

Generate/check.gif      Press the "X" at top right of screen to close this references screen.

Generate/check.gif      Now go back to the Paula Heimann paper "On counter-transference".

Generate/check.gif   Click the Author information icon Generate/2authinfo.giffollowing the author's name.

Another box will open with information about the author, including address at time of publication.

Generate/2HEMAUT.gif

Generate/check.gif      Press the "X" at top right of screen to close this references screen.

NOTE      If you have moved to other articles in the database, you may navigate your way back by clicking either on the left or right Navigation Buttons, Generate/hits tools arrrows.gif on the Tool Bar on the top of your screen, until you are back in the Heimann paper. The left button F6 moves you back and the right button Shift F6 goes forward.

We have seen there are twenty papers by Paula Heimann on the disc. But what about who quotes them and for what purpose.

Generate/check.gif      To see all the References to Heimann in the PEP CD-ROM

Generate/check.gif  Open Search by Context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif or use keys [Ctrl +1].

Generate/check.gif      Type in Heimann in the top Dialog Box.

Notice there are 530 articles where Heimann is mentioned in the "Word Tree"pane.

NOTE:      **Normal paragraph level searches have been set up in such a way as to exclude bibliographies. This means the results reflect discussion of an author in the text, not the references at the end. If you are looking for a match in a bibliography click the References radio.

Generate/check.gif      Click OK

Now you can move through the actual references in the articles. Press the Next Hit (F4) Generate/toolbarF4.gif or Previous Hit (Shift F4) Generate/toolbarShiftF4.gif Icons on the Toolbar (on the top of screen) to move from one hit to the next. You see how people quoted her.

5. Who cites whom?

Interestingly, close inspection of these articles by Heimann yields no apparent reference to the work of Heinrich Racker, an analyst widely known for work in the area of countertransference at the same time. In the full texts of the journals on this CD did either cite the other's work? This query and similar ones can be tested easily.

Generate/check.gif      Select the Search by Context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif

Generate/check.gif      Enter Heimann into the Author field

Generate/check.gif      Enter Heinrich Racker into the Top field

Generate/check.gif      Click OK

We can see that Heimann does not cite Racker.

Generate/2rack-heim.gif

NOTE:      Entering an author's full name in the author field ensures the search will pick up only that author and not another in case there may be another Racker in the database.

Now we can see if Racker cites Heimann.

Generate/check.gif      Select the Search by Context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif

Generate/check.gif      Enter Heinrich Racker into the Author field

Generate/check.gif      Enter Heimann into the Top field

We can see that Racker cites Heimann three times.

Generate/2HEYRACK.gif

Generate/check.gif      Click OK

Generate/Racker-references.gif

 

Looking at the Bibliography window pane Racker quotes Heimann in three papers and is clearly well aware of and interested in her work.

Generate/check.gif      Open up the second of the Racker articles (Racker 1957) by clicking on it in the Bibliography window.

Generate/check.gif      Move cursor into the Document window pane, click the mouse and press Generate/toolbarF4.gif F4 or scroll down the article until you find Heimann highlighted.

NOTE:      If you press F5 or use the scroll arrows while in the Bibliography window pane, the text in the document will remain static. You must click in the Document window to scroll text or display the next hit.

6. Who else Wrote that Year?

Heimann was writing in 1950. What else was going on at this time?

Generate/check.gif      To see what other articles appeared in the volume of the Journal in which Heimann was writing

Generate/check.gif      Go back to the 1950 Heimann article.

You can do this by using the Go Back F6 Generate/2NavigationF6.gif icon to return you to previous screen and more specifically to the Heimann paper.

Once there, you can simply click on the volume number 31, written in red on the Heiman paper just above the title. You will get a bibliographic list of all the papers in the volume. Alternatively, if you wanted to instead see the artilces place in the Table of Journals, you could instead:

Generate/check.gif      Click in the Bibliography window pane on Heimann's 1950 article.

The paper displays with its title at the top of the screen.

Generate/HeimanSearch50-2.gif

NOTE:      As you move the cursor over the title once again it will change from being an arrow into a hand

Generate/check.gif      Move the cursor over the title of the paper "ON COUNTER-TRANSFERENCE" in the document window and click

You will find the contents pages displayed for the year of Journal in which Paula Heimann’s article appeared in the International Journal of Psychoanalysis.

Generate/Heimtitle.gif

You can now see the articles in the volume of the Journal in which Heimann's article appeared.

Generate/check.gif      Scroll down the Document Pane (using the control tab the right hand side) until you come to the paper On the Termination of Analysis by Annie Reich.

 

Generate/Reichtoc.gif

Generate/check.gif      Click on the red title by Annie Reich and you will see

 

Generate/Reichterminpap.gif

 

Scroll down until you come to the following text making an interesting point of comparison in relation to countertransference.

Generate/Reichct quote.gif

NOTE:      If you scroll down through the Document Pane a little more you see the original page number 183, which you might find useful for citation purposes.)

Generate/check.gif      To See What else was being Published in all Eight Journals in 1950

Generate/check.gif      Press the Search by context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif or press the [Ctrl+1] keys.

Generate/check.gif      Enter 1950 in the field labeled "Year"

351 articles - the total number published that year in this database - will be displayed .

Generate/check.gif      Click on OK

The papers can be browsed by clicking on the table in the Bibliography window or by using the F4 Generate/toolbarF4.gif and F5 Generate/toolbarforwardf5.gif keys.

7. Seeing What was Said about Books or the Meaning of Dreams

There are many things that can be done using searches from the Search by Context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif. For example, the context can be specified to examine only book reviews or situations where the content of dreams have been reported.

To look at what has been said about a book in book reviews, for example, we can use the "article type" field and to restrict the search to book reviews.

Generate/check.gif      Press the Search by Context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif.

Generate/check.gif      Enter "rev" in the field labeled "article type".

Generate/check.gif      Enter "The Skin Ego" in the Article Title field.

Generate/Revskin ego.gif

Generate/check.gif      Press the OK button.

Generate/BOOKREV.gif

There are two reviews of this book by the French analyst Didier Anzieu. Try putting in the titles of other books and seeing what was said.

 

To look at what has been said about the content of dreams, for example, we can use the "dreams" field and to restrict the search to those areas of the text on the disc which have been tagged as reporting dreams. (All results should be treated with caution as this tagging is not highly reliable).

 

Let us look for dreams about “falling”.

Generate/check.gif      Press the Search by context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif or press the [Ctrl+1] keys

Generate/check.gif      Click the “Dream” radio

Generate/check.gif      Enter into the top dialog field “Falling”

Generate/dreamfalling.gif

 

There are 37 dreams reported where the idea of falling occurred.

 

Generate/check.gif      Enter the OK button to see in which articles they appear.

The first hit or dream reference is in a paper by Jorge Ahumada (1995). Use F4 Generate/toolbarF4.gif to look at the other dream examples.

8. More Refined Searching by Context

If we go back to our search on countertransference and enactment it will be recalled there were 326 articles where these two terms appeared in the same paragraph.

Generate/check.gif      Click Search by Context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif .

While in the Search by Context Screen

Generate/check.gif      Click the Previous button on the lower left side of the Search by Context screen until you find your previous search for these terms countertransference and enactment at the paragraph level.

Note: If you can not find your previous search on countertransference and enactment, simply type the terms into the Search by Context screen at the paragraph level and continue with this tutorial.

To refine the search to a smaller number of key articles, let us think about a cluster of terms (and thus concepts): countertransference, enactment, analyst’s feelings, interpretation, living out the (transference) and let us make use of the logical operators “AND” and “OR”. Let us also use the wild card method to search for variations of words such as interpret, interpretation, interpreting etc. In order to capture this expression of these concepts:

Generate/check.gif      Remove the previous terms countertransference and enactment.

Generate/check.gif      Type in the top dialog box the following: c*tr*ce or "analyst's feelings" and enact* or "liv* out" and "interp* of"

Note: You can actually cut and paste these words and then drop them into the top Dialog box.

You can see firsthand the "Word Tree" work as it carries out your search. Be patient as this complicated search may take up to a minute or more to do. You will see that you have narrowed your search to return 50 key articles with these concepts.

Generate/Searby contwildcards.gif

In these 50 articles and in the same paragraph we find mention of either countertransference (in various spellings) or the analysts’ feelings together with the concepts of either enactment or living out and of efforts to interpret it.

 

Generate/check.gif      Click OK and the results display in the bibliography pane and can be inspected.

Generate/check.gif      Press F4 Generate/toolbarF4.gif to advance to the first paragraph where the terms can be seen.

Your screen should look something like this:

Generate/searbywildresults.gif

This screen shows the first paragraph with hits. It is an article by Bawdry (1991) and is clearly precisely discussing the topic we are trying to learn about.

 

Generate/check.gif      Continue to press F4 Generate/toolbarF4.gif to advance and scroll through for other paragraphs with hits in the other articles.

Many of the 50 articles are relevant, showing how relevant results are achieved by defining the search context carefully. You will find, for example, Schafer’s (1991) review of Betty Joseph’s work.

This book review can be found many ways. But the simplest method is to use your current search.

Generate/check.gif      Put your cursor in the right bibliography pane. Scroll down and click when you get to Schafer (1991)Generate/schafer on joseph.gif

Any number of such searches can be attempted but a word of warning – the search tools can only find (a) text in the articles in the Journals in the database and (b) is only as reliable as the search you construct. Thus although the search we just constructed and used did find a review of Betty Joseph’s work on the topic – and her work is one of the most illuminating contributions on this topic – it did not actually find her articles – Betty Joseph is not in the bibliography pane on the search we just did.

 

One of her key articles on the topic is there, however. So to find Betty Joseph's work:

Generate/check.gif      Click on the Search by Context icon Generate/SRCHCXT.gif .

Generate/check.gif      Type Betty Joseph in the Author dialog field

We can see she has 14 articles.

Generate/check.gif      Click OK

Her articles can be displayed in the bibliography pane.

Generate/Betty joseph-14.gif

Looking down the articles put your cursor on Joseph’s 1985 article and scroll down to page 448.

 Here you see that Joseph is discussing exactly the topic of our search and uses phrases like (the analyst) “is living out the patient's own defensive system” and the term “countertransference” but not quite in the way the search requested.

Generate/Joseph-448.gif

The lesson is to search widely and to try to think of different ways authors might construct their thinking on your topic. PEP’s Search by Context Generate/SRCHCXT.gif is a very powerful tool but like all tools requires thoughtful direction and application.

9. Ranked Searching

PEP’s Search by Context Generate/SRCHCXT.gif icon is now clearly the search method of choice, because it allows intelligent specification based on meaning and does not rely on strictly crude quantification of a term occurrence as does the ranked search.

 

It is possible, however, to do a simple counting search that may be useful as part of finding out roughly what is written on a topic and how to set up many effective Search by Context Generate/SRCHCXT.gif searches.

 

The ranked search can be of help here. A ranked search or ranked "relevancy" searches uses the Query Tool, shown below with the terms c*tr*ce or “counter-transference”. The Query Tool (or dialog box) is defaulted by Folio Views to always show only the top 50 articles as ranked by relevance - that is articles containing the most occurrences (hits) of the searched term. The results are displayed in ranked order; the article with the most matches (hits) appearing first.

 

The simplest way to do a ranked search is to type a term or terms into the Query Tool as shown here.

 

Generate/Queryboxctr.gif

Generate/check.gif      Type in c*tr*ce “counter-transference”

Generate/check.gif      Press Enter

Generate/QueryboxctrresORR.gif

The 50 articles which use the term countertransference most (in its various spellings) have been “found” and are displayed in the Bibliography pane and in the ranking pane. The ranking pane places the “hits” in order – the article with the most density, with the most mentions of the searched term appears first. In this case it is an article by Douglas Orr (1954).

Ranked searching is limited in value because, for technical reasons, it works only at the article level – in other words it will search for the presence of numbers of terms but not in the same paragraph, only in a whole article. It is a blunt instrument with none of the subtlety of being able to Search by Context using the Generate/SRCHCXT.gif icon.

Generate/check.gif Using New PEP Customized Advanced Query and Rank Search

As you can see you are limited in doing the ranked search as certain special Views search tools do not operate there and you are only searching at the article, not paragraph level. If you wanted to limit your search or make it more conceptually specific, you could use the Advanced Search using the Generate/Search21.gif icon.

Note: Whenever conducting a ranked search and some other specialized searches from the Advanced Search mode, you will not be able to List your Bibliography. However, this dialog allows you to more easily insert the rank number you desire.

There are three ways to get the Advanced Search dialog.

Generate/check.gif  Press the Advanced Search icon Generate/Search2.gif or

Generate/check.gif   Keystroke [Ctrl + 2 ] or

Generate/check.gif   Select Advanced Search from the Search Menu pull-down at the top of your screen.

Now let's say you are interested in knowing about countertransference, enactment and acting out.

Generate/check.gif  Type c*rtr*ce or "counter-transference" enactment

You will get the following screen:

Notice the "Word Tree" work as it searches the infobase for your words in each paragraph of each article, yeilding 333 articles where these words occurred in the same paragraph. If you instead clicked the Article radio, your results would expand to 786 articles, where these terms appeared anywhere in the article.

This search needs to be limited. An easy way to quantitatively limit the Advanced Search by using the Rank field to type in a number and select the Rank radio. So, using the Advanced Search shown above for c*rtr*ce or "counter-transference" enactment:

Generate/check.gif  Type 75 into the Rank field and select the Rank radio.

If you typed in 75, you would get the top 75 articles that had AT THE PARAGRAPH LEVEL, the terms you were looking for. As you know now, the the closer in proximity the terms are to each other, the more likely they will have increased meaning.

Note: The Ranked Search Query Tool does also default to 50. However it searches at the article level, not the paragraph level. Further, many advanced searching operators can not be used in the Ranked Search Box.

Generate/check.gif  Click OK to close the Advanced Search Box and display the results

Generate/check.gif  Select the Ranking Tab (on the Views Tabs Toolbar) to see the 75 articles displayed in order of the number of hits. It will look like this:

The article selected can be found listed with other titles in the section field as seen in the example of the Print dialog Box above. If you wanted to print the article by Abend, S. (1993) An Inquiry into the Fate of the Transference in Psychoanalysis, you would need to locate the article in the list of articles. Then, make a checkmark in the box next to this paper. Automatically, the dot in the radial will move from Record to Section. You are now ready to print. Make sure the Section radio is selected.

Problem:      After printing, the program will NOT automatically uncheck the article.

Solution:      After printing, you must manually UNCHECK the box or the next time you try to print an article, you will also print whatever articles you still have checked. You can uncheck going to the Edit Menu option "Clear All Checks. Another method is to right click anywhere in the bibliography pane and select "Clear all checks". With either method your cursor must be in the bibliography pane.

IMPORTANT: Never click the "all" radio in the print document screen as it will cause your computer to print out the entire disc, but because of memory and disk space limitations, it will likely cause your computer to require a "restart".

The Font and the Font size for printing can be changed by selecting Options from the Settings Menu. If you select the Print Tab you will see the Font field and Size fields displayed.

12. Using the Copy and Paste Commands

The PEP CD-ROM includes a copy command feature that allows you to highlight and copy text and images to the Clipboard in Microsoft Windows. This feature is provided for your personal use of the product. For example, you may wish to copy information on a certain topic to an electronic file to make a research file (notes, lecture, draft paper) for your future reference. You may wish to print out an article to read at a later time when you are away from your computer. For more instructions you can refer to the section on Printing, Copying and Pasting text by clicking here.

However, copyright law does not allow you, for example, to copy an article for commercial publication or for posting onto a computer bulletin board. These examples are illustrative, and are not meant to summarise applicable law. See your license agreement for details.

The cut, copy and paste commands are the same as those that you probably already use in your word-processor.

To copy text from an article into an open document in your word-processor:

Generate/check.gif      Select the text. (See the section on Printing out selected text above)

Generate/check.gif      Press [Ctrl + C] to copy. (Alternatively select Copy from the Edit Menu)

Generate/check.gif      Open your document in your word-processor.

Generate/check.gif      Move your cursor to the place where you wish to place the text.

Generate/check.gif      Press [Ctrl + V] to paste the text. (Alternatively select Paste from the Edit Menu)

The selected text will now be in your document.

14. What's Next

Other sections in this PEP-Help Manual and in the Folio Views Help (available from the Menu bar when running the PEP disc) introduce you to other features. As it is difficult to take in a lot of information at once and without a task we envisage you looking at these two sources as you go on with your research.

Use the instructions in the remainder of the PEP-Help Manual and in the Folio Help files to become more and more expert - but first *click here for some important information or select and print out "What to do and Not to do when first using Folio Views" from the Manual Contents. This gives a few warnings and bits of technical information which will keep your use of the disc minimally complicated.

PEP is continually working to improve the disc and make it more user-friendly with each update.
