Peer reviewed material

Peer reviewed material is material published in scientific journals (or other types of journals). These articles have been published in these journals only following review of the articles by other scientists who assess the quality and validity of the material.

News articles and websites are not peer reviewed and anyone can right anything there whether it is true or not. In scientific essays you should focus on referencing peer reviewed material first and foremost before utilising other material.
