<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">APA initiated this change to our database naming convention because we’ve found that many users, although they’re aware of APA, don’t realize that databases like PsycInfo are APA products.
Similarly, we want to avoid confusion with other psychology products, some of which use a “psych” prefix, that are not developed by APA.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">At this time, this change has only been rolled out by EBSCO, and it will soon be made by ProQuest, Ovid and on our PsycNet platform. APA apologizes for not communicating this to the
community proactively. EBSCO implemented the change in late January. Information about the name change is on EBSCO’s support site (https://connect.ebsco.com) and EBSCO notified customers through email on January 30th. We’ve made EBSCO aware of the need for
additional communication, and they’ve heard this feedback and will take additional steps to communicate.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">We recognize name changes can take time to resonate with students, faculty, and researchers. As such, we recommend utilizing the alternative name feature in your A-Z list/ERM, including
a (formerly known as) descriptor, or adding a duplicate/cross-reference entry in your A-Z list as just a few possible workarounds to support your communities through this change.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
