Please Help Me Access A Scientific Paper
« on: October 02, 2012, 08:19:48 pm »
Hi
I want to update a Wikipedia article but all I can get access to is the abstracts of the 2 papers I wish to read.
I cannot get access to them through the university library as I am not in uni ,my local library doesn't have the psychiatry journals.
I've tried Google Scholar with no luck.I am considering writing to the author as there is an email in Pub Med but I'm not sure if I should mention that I intend to use it to update a Wikipedia article,I've never done this kind of thing before,I'm not sure what to say...any help would be greatly appreciated. :)
The names of the papers:

Curr Opin Psychiatry. 2012 Jan;25(1):52-8.
Clinical psychopharmacology of borderline personality disorder: an update on the available evidence in light of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - 5.
Ripoll LH.
Source
James J. Peters VA Medical Center

J Clin Psychopharmacol. 2011 Oct;31(5):613-24.
Antipsychotics, antidepressants, anticonvulsants, and placebo on the symptom dimensions of borderline personality disorder: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled and open-label trials.
Vita A, De Peri L, Sacchetti E.

Email the author. Everyone is eager to be cited as many times as possible and that is what you are doing. He will be grateful to you.
